After talking with a tinsmith who worked in Avernus then getting some gruel for morning meal, we found another healer. Of sorts. Astarion thinks I told her everything because he said it would be funny, but I just did it to needle Lae'zel. Because I thought *that* would be funny.

Ethel says she might have something that'll remove the tadpoles just lying around her house with some other bits and bobs. I'm dubious. But it's not far, so we'll probably give it a try if the druid healer can't manage it.

Finally posting the last of my Reflections series with Laezel! Doing this series has been a nice challenge (as a way for me to draw more characters with dynamic posing, and also picked up a new skill along the way!), and I've enjoyed myself. ✊ Time will tell if I'll do a Durge piece (someone did request it) but for now, you can check out my previous in the reflections tag in this post!❤️

BG3 Masc Tav/Durge Event

Day 8: Lae’zel

Next up is the fierce githyanki warrior Lae'zel!

How does your character feel about having a sword drawn on them immediately? Does her stubborn need for martial prowess bother your character? Does your character listen to her about needing to find her people for a cure, or do they prefer to try other methods before facing githyanki in their creche?

Do they take her to the creche, and how does it go? Do they learn of Vlaakith's lies and set Lae'zel against her queen, or do they support her undying loyalty?

Do they help Lae'zel retrieve the Orphic Hammer? Is it ever used? How do those consequences affect their views of each other?

Imrae, the Mad Drow BG3 Masc Tav/Durge Event

Thank you for alerting me to this event by @mascgatemayhem, @et-augury! Day One and Two, Days Three to Six and Day Seven are here.

Imyaraen "Imrae" Auvryervs is an abjuration wizard and a sorcerer of the Deep Earth (the latter is largely suppressed while under the influence of the illithid parasite).

He's been a loner for the past sixty years, but thankfully, the circumstances of the Absolute crisis force him to get close to others again, and that is where he finds a life partner in a certain vampire...

Day 8: Lae'zel

She is Imrae's best friend, and his first in a long time. He likes her from the moment she decides to spare him on the Nautiloid despite being infected, and he worries for her when she is not nearby after the crash. He is not put off by her brash nature, he values her honesty and her fierceness.

After how she has been brought up, Lae'zel is not quick to give into the sentiment of "friendship", but she does value his decisiveness, his cool head, and his eagerness to follow her suggestion regarding the crèche.

And, honestly, she is glad that he is taking the lead when they both are very much out of their depths, and they do bond over being fishes out of water, having one another's back when faced with ridicule for experiencing things like weather and seasons for the first time.

During resting hours, they spend a lot of time in camp together. They teach each other their respective languages. During and after traversing the Underdark, they rest next to each other for warmth and safety (not cuddling, just staying close).

Lae'zel is quick to offer a night of "tasting one another", which Imrae declines on account of them not having known each other for long. Her overall measured reaction of "your loss" is what solidifies the drow's trust in her.

The only real point of conflict between the two is the use of additional tadpoles, with Lae'zel acting as Imrae's shoulder angel and Astarion as his shoulder devil.

Imrae's respect and fondness for Lae'zel is the only reason he bows to Vlaakith, and fear for her safety is the main reason he goes through with trying to kill the dream guardian.

After the crèche, where Imrae trusts Lae'zel to handle things until the zaith'isk threatens her life, he is an important anchor to her, as her role as his deputy is the only thing in her life that has not suddenly changed.

Lae'zel admits their friendship to herself during their journey through the Underdark (detailed in The Grey of Ash), and she worries for him greatly during their adventures in the Shadow-Cursed Lands, a very novel experience for her.

When the truth about the Emperor comes out, Lae'zel is the one to comfort Imrae. She reminds him that while the creature fooled them, it now has made a mistake and they can take glorious revenge.

Since Imrae has no interest in making a deal with Raphael, to free Orpheus, they go through literal hell together to get the Orphic Hammer from the House of Hope.

After the defeat of the Absolute, Lae'zel becomes the leader of the rebellion, and the two part ways with very heavy hearts, but they stay in touch.

They see each other again in person a year later, during the Solstice of 1493 DR. Afterwards, Imrae visits K'liir, Lae'zel's new base on the material plane, as soon as he can.

They stay lifelong friends.

My high from the battle is wearing off. I persuaded one of the tiefling refugees to shoot for vengeance, which helped a little.
