My problem with Lae'zel is that she shares too many major story beats with Shadowheart. But individually they are good characters and we aren't spoiled for choice with 6.5 origin characters and a few more plot relevant companions. Her story works well for a Gith and it's good that we have a Gith companion option with how relevant the illithid are to the plot.
