I forgot that. She was also a gnome at one point IIRC. So they seem to have been playing around with her for a while. My guess is that they couldn't quite get a solid idea for the character to stick, and that she was scrapped as a result. My speculation, of course.
Origins? Honestly I wouldn't be too surprised if wee didn't get any more. Between Minsc and Helia (probably) being scrapped as origins, I wouldn't be too shocked if Karlach was as well. Honestly if she was the only origin character left to be added, I would have expected Larian to put her in EA by now. The fact that Larian is hyping non-origins party members before her is mildly concerning. She has had almost zero exposure compared to everyone else. Surely they could put some art containing her up for the Loading screens, at least?
