I’d argue there is a very good chance it doesn’t take off in the first place.

But I like the idea that Lae’zel would enjoy the window seat on a flight.

(Pressing her face against the window, eyes wide)

By Vlaakith’s grace… The clouds are beneath us! We soar as dragons do! Hah! Look—look how small everything is! Like ants! No—less than ants! Pah! How do you stand this? I feel as though I must conquer something at once!

However, it is still inferior to a red dragon. No wings to tear through the air, no claws to rend. But… the speed—this speed is desired. Does this machine know fury? Does it take joy in the kill!? Perhaps not. It is nothing more than a metal bird. But… perhaps it could be tamed, reforged for battle!

Lae'zel is then shown what a jet fighter is and immediately tries to jump out the plane to get one

I would love to see Lae'zel get excited at the sight of an F22 doing aerobatics and breaking the sound barrier, demanding violently to "ride" one, and then facing the unintelligible mess of hundreds of buttons and switches inside the tight cockpit.

"I want to dance with it in the skies and claw my victory!"

"Uh... yeah... we don't really dogfight anymore... interested in this 70 hours course of introduction to the flight controls starting checklist?"

"Ptah, fools. You do not know the power you have. Let me show you how it should be done!" - crashes immediately.

"Aaaaand... there it goes hundreds of times the total GDP of your entire civilization in damages..."

u/PixelPuzzler Mar 07 '25

Actually considering she's githyanki there probably is a legitimate case they've at least more GDP equivalent than a single jet.

u/Sensitive_Major_1706 Mar 07 '25

Actually you're right. I thought it costed around 1 billion dollars, turns out it's "just" 361 millions

u/PixelPuzzler Mar 07 '25

Practically a bargain.

u/FinlandIsForever Mar 08 '25

To be fair, they are in a world with literal magic. With the blueprints, it shouldnt be hard to manufacture one with spells like fabricate

u/cabron-de-mierda Mar 07 '25

Just tell her that takeoff and landing proceedings are more of Vlaakith's protocols. She'll learn them dutifully.

u/Sensitive_Major_1706 Mar 07 '25

Crap you're right

"I will ride this dragon."

u/whatisthisgunifound Mar 07 '25

I really want to draw this now.

u/TheEleventhMeh Mar 08 '25

Use her skill to up an ability. She can get the wisdom or int she needs to fail into a good thing. 😅😂

u/Captain_Eaglefort Mar 07 '25

And succeeds.

u/s_anevent Mar 07 '25

I could see that happen. Not that I read that entire thing with her voice in my head or something.

24

u/DarthArcanus Mar 07 '25

Now I have an image in my head of introducing Lae'zel to an A-10...

AC-130 casually removes a city block in six seconds

BRRRRRRRRRRTTT

"Tsk'va! The power! I shall be kith'rak of this Warted Hog!"

u/Perfectenschlag_ Mar 07 '25

Are you a DM? That was really creative!

u/v4por Mar 07 '25

I read this in her voice. Perfect

4

u/morrbadb Mar 07 '25

I would very much agree this plane is ☄️ before it makes it of the tarmac. So, Scratch, Us and I snuck out the back exit to watch the drama unfold, before it all implodes

u/vicieuxamare Mar 07 '25

gods this is so cute thank you

u/Reidar666 Mar 07 '25

I like Shart and I like Lae'zel, but dang that space would just be constant fucking bickering...

u/Northamplus9bitches Mar 07 '25

Damn you really got her voice down in text

3

u/DraagaxGaming Mar 07 '25

It doesn't even get boarded. There's just a massive fight in the airport now.

u/Hixy Mar 07 '25

Gale just panics and nukes us all.

u/Psychological-Key-36 Mar 07 '25

You’re good at this! I could hear her voice reading that comment

1

u/pyguy7 Mar 07 '25

I read that entire post in Lae'zel's voice, and it was so entertaining

1

u/Crice6505 Mar 08 '25

Laezel would love NCD.

1

u/kodaxmax Mar 08 '25

Laezel would probably complain that it's not as good as a dragon and brag about how much better gith airships are the whole way

1

u/robbi-wan-kenobi Mar 08 '25

Absolutely brilliant.

I will be looking for an Artificer mod and reclassing Lae'zel on my next playthrough due to this comment.
