Thought I'd do a bit of character ratin.
10 - Minthara
I didn't even know you could recruit her during my first play through. She was just another boss I had to fight whose name I forgot soon after, if I even knew it in the first place. But I sure as hell am not going to help invade the Emerald Enclave just to recruit her.
9 - Jaheira
Who is this lady in my camp? Why is she here? How did I even meet her? I mean, according to Google, I need her to find this Minsc guy. So good thing she's here. But I have no idea...oh...okay! She's that one person we meet at the Last Light Inn. Okay!
8- Lae'zel
Look, I tried to keep her alive. I really did. I went to find her crèche. I let her have first crack at the purification machine and saved her from it. But because I refuse to give up the artifact that's keeping us from becoming mind flayers, she attacks me. What does it take to get some freaking gratitude?
7 - Gale
STOP EATING MY MAGIC ITEMS!!!
6 - Halsin
I liked him at the goblin camp. He was really useful there. But I gotta admit, I bearly used him after that.
5 - Wyll
Barely used him, but I like his back story. So we're finally getting to my favorite characters.
4 - Minsc
I did not know who this guy was before playing BG3. But I guess he's big in the world of Baldur's Gate. He's in a bunch of comics that I'm now in the process of reading. I've really grown to like the big lug.
3 - Astarion
Top three characters, so you know these are the ones that will always have a place in my group. And if I have to replace one of these three for someone else for a character-centric quest, it's going to be hard to choose. I absolutely love Astarion. His voice actor (Neil Newbon) has been nominated for Best Voice Actor. I hope he gets it. He truly deserves it. The charisma of this guy is off the charts!
2/1 - Karlach/Shadowheart
During my first play through, I would've said I like Shadowheart more. Ask me an hour ago, I would've said Karlach. Ask me an hour from now...? I love Shadowheart's dark, sardonic humor. I love Karlach's bright and cheerful humor. They both have tragic backstories. They're both charming as hell. It's just too hard to say who I love more.
