Can you recruit a replacement companion if one in your party is dead?
Nobody knows ... hirelings were not part of EA.
Also, not relevant for this topic.
SH must be a unique case, since her artifact seems to be plot-essential. You may have to kill her or pickpocket the artifact and tell her off in order to be rid of her completely.
After i find out ...
I killed her in the camp, got the Artefact ... ressurected her ... still cant tell her to f* off. :-/
(
Funny story ... as i killed her, robed her, and ressurected her ... she didnt care ... but when i asked Astarion to stay in camp, he attacked me and she helped us kill him.)
I dunno, seems just odd ...
I can send Astarion away, after i find out he is a Vampire! Message shows that he leaved the party permanently afterwards.
Unique case my ass ...
//Edit:
You dont have to invite her into your party in the first place ... the game should simply act as if you didnt.
edit//
I want to demand her to leave ... she may refuse, she may attack me, she may follow me secretly ... i dont care.
But when my character say that she should LEAVE i want her to LEAVE, not just move to my camp and chill there. :-/
Atempt two ...
Now i have artefact, but dont know she is Sharan.
Same result ... sending her away, only removes her from my party and send her to camp.

I must say this quite pisses me off. :-/
Bcs if anyone wish to experience game without Shadowheart behind their ass, they are forced to metagame and leave her on the beach ... where we have litteraly no *in character reason* to do so. :-/
