Balthier is pretty wary of gods meddling with people. He'd support an effort to reach out diplomatically before doing anything that might cause conflict. He has dealt with gods, and with high power diplomats/leaders and is a smooth talker.

He also likes nice things and absolutely wants a chance to swipe any magical items if the opportunity presents, or scope them for future purposes.

Happy to have him organize or tag along with others. He's a leader type but he's new here and not great at tech yet.
