# [[Lazda Venkervale]] Lazda Venkervale was originally from [[Otari]], but according to his mother [[Brelda Venkervale]], people saw him leaving Otari last year with a hooded stranger. We eventually found him in [[The Gauntlight]] after he was tortured repeatedly. He is the owner of [[The Rowdy Rockfish]]. He is a red-headed male dwarf. Lazda has still not recovered from his mental trauma from his torture and was scaring the customers with his repeated visions of eyes following and hurting him. [[Vayle]] has offered to help by counseling him, and Brelda agreed. ## Recent Events ### Session 088 - Mental Deterioration and Counseling - **Mental State**: Physically fine but mentally deteriorating, screaming at people for no reason - **Hallucinations**: Sees or imagines things that aren't there, scaring the patrons - **PTSD Symptoms**: Reliving all those weeks of being tortured before the party rescued him - **Yellow Eyes Vision**: Sees mostly darkness and then several yellow eyes in the dark, floating around him, always following him and hurting him - **Variable Count**: Sometimes sees one pair of eyes, sometimes seven - **No Runes**: Brelda confirms he doesn't have runes on his body - **Restraint**: Has been restrained and is shouting at something - **Counseling Treatment**: [[Vayle]] determined his condition is not magical - just PTSD - **Daily Counseling**: Vayle will try to counsel Lazda daily during the party's downtime
