To me, the triumph of the BG series, was a diversity of companions and being able to build different parties. As well as conflicts and characters being free to leave.
So, Untadpolled companions and many of them. Who leave if they don't share your caused, have arguments with each other and aren't linked to you by destiny but by choice.

A Xan style, I've here to a mission and you seem to align with that but I'm not invested in you specifically, LN would be fun. Especially if you wind up really close and then as soon as they finish their mission they're like, that's me i'm off, pass a hard roll and make the right dialogue choices based on what you remember form their conversations to convince them or they leave.

Also, I really enjoyed how the goblins and hobgoblins are characterised in the ruins, so a goblinoid would be great. But not as a comic relief.

A changeling, if they were like the early version (with the every skill a different personality) would be really fun and we have planar shenanigans to justify it too.

Yes, an uncomplicated I know why I am here and so do you, lets get on with it. It'd be cool if it was Bloodaxe as he'd still be around and probably doing the same, and the game could explore, what happens to an uncomplicated evil merc/adventurer when they.. save the world and are now famous but don't care. It could be fun and of all the characters to bring back, he'd be the least fanservicey so probably to best to work on his own rather than just, hey remember me from the thing?

I'd kind of like an uncomplicated fighter to be, a not traditionally evil or fighter species though. Something about that personality on a hafling, aasimar or gnome would be hilarious but with the character still being completely played straight and serious not a comic relief.

Minthara is the best character and she NEEDS to be recruitable if you side with the grove!
