(It's really hard to decide, I still wish we could have a party of five. But I am very glad the party won't be locked.)
My first party will be my wild magic sorceress Lia (charlatan background), Astarion, Karlach and Shadowheart.
As usual, Lia will romance Astarion, and I hope she can become best friends with Karlach. Surprisingly, she and Shadowheart already get along quite well.
After this panel, and hearing from the writers that our character's actions and interactions with the companions do indeed influence their character development and growth, I am now much more confident that the Astarion romance with a "nice" character doesn't necessarily have to end in a complete disaster 😄
I am very curious to find out.
