Honestly this is a bad way to approach it, it's much more fun to let them come to camp then get rid of them via the dark urge choices you make lol I highly recommend romancing someone as well lol

The vamp is useful initially but when I obtained the Knock spell his usefulness decreased a fair bit. I changed his class to Ranger, using a mod, and he'll be of far more use to me that way.

I always loved him, my friends tell me he's just like having me in their party.

Lae'zel has redeeming qualities. She's loyal, honest, has conviction in a cause beyond herself, self reflects, and actually grows as a person.

Astarion is selfish, impulsive, rude, cruel, dishonest, and greedy the whole way through.

Yeah I agree, she actually seemed less stubborn then Shadowheart when came to there goddesses. She also seems very intelligent and not just some mindless irrational brute.

But have you done so as the Dark Urge?

Same, I also killed Karlach and left the Gith to die.

EDIT: My MC is a fighter with high dex for bows and defence, so he can do lockpicking, meaning I didn't lose much from killing those people in terms of gameplay.

Honestly, Laezel and Astarion are the only ones to kill from a role playing perspective.

Don't get me wrong, they end up growing to become great characters. But before being great characters we have...

Astarion

1. A vampire who tried to eat you. (Aah! A vampire! -Kills)
2. A vampire who ACTUALLY ate/killed you. (I trusted you with a bit of blood and you killed me! -Kill)
3. This is on top of Astarion being a cruel person who thinks chopping off the child's hand is what 'should be done'/merciful punishment option.

You learn all this BEFORE learning about Astarion's tragic backstory, etc. And then we have...

Laezel

1. Laezel tries to kill you and refuses to save Shadowheart (showing off her cold brutal nature)
2. If Laezel vs Thieflings. Then Thieflings every time.
3. Doesn't say please and thank you (so I'll just leave her there)
4. Tries to mercy kill you. (Since dying isn't quite an option. Self defense is a thing)
5. An idiot, like all gith.

They removed alignments in 5e because of idiotic role players like you. Partially fixed the issue but still a lot of work to make people a better role players.

5e does have alignments.

BG3 just doesn't have them shown.

Also alignment is an abstraction. It can change.

Asteron tried to jump me, I killed Karlach for Wyll and snuck past the Giths which lead to Lae'zel being executed (I also didn't pick her up earlier since I had a full party).

Also considering my party is 82.5% human there would be people who would want to play with me, if I wanted to.
