Not only that, if you look at the journal and compare her questline to the rest of origin companions... it's just laughable. You don't even scroll. Everyone can get their good ending, Wyll can become a duke and Shadowheart can live well with a romanced Tav - she literally gets a sweet scene with Tav discussing their future. 'Bad endings' my buttocks, to say the least.

Astarion, granted is a vampire so it's to be expected for him to burn under the sun and i've actually seen Astarion fans complaining about his ending being shown as a 'joke'. Yet, he gets a nice scene with Tav and he's alive as since he got his revenge which is what he wanted the most. Karlach wanted to live in her city. She didn't get it.
