I voted Gale, but I'm honestly a little overwhelmed by all the interesting choices for my first run. I'm probably going LG Paladin Tav, so other than the evil/unholy options (Minthara, Astarion, Lae'zel) there's a bunch of other possibilities. Could end up going with Karlach or Halsin. I look forward to spending an hour deliberating it in camp lol.
