Lae'zel wont move! Perma "immobile"

[Sililos]

Started a fresh game and did the introduction too her, in the fight i noticed she had ZERO movement action but could fire her ranged weapon.
Outside of combat she just stands there, if i select her, i cant get her to move and my party doesn't follow her, The jump button is greyed out with red "Immobile" message on it.

To try and fix this i have tried a few things including reading countless topics ON THIS SAME ISSUE all within the past 2 years at various times. (Why the hell has this not been fixed when its been known about since Launch!?????)

Steps i have taken:
Switched between turn based and normal mode.
Switched into party stealth and out.
Switched into personal stealth with her selected.
Pushed her into a fire and watched her pass out then helped her up.
Pushed her into the fire and watched her die then revived her. (Not going to lie, i enjoyed these last 2 attempts as i really cant stand her character.)
Tried to move onto the next cutscene too see if it dislodges her.
Entered convo with Shadowheart.
Reloaded the very first autosave. still happened suggesting the bug starts at char creation.
Exited game and loaded back up.
Cant check her inventory and its the start of the game so she shouldn't be carrying too much.
Reloaded save multiple times since some people said it worked for them.

Next step:
I guess im going to have to start over and see if that fixes it. At least im at the start of the game unlike so many others with it.

Additional:
After combat with the imps while this bug was happening, The Int devourer got 'stuck' in combat mode, it could be selected and moved as if a fight was happening but my main character moved as normal.

I got her to leave the party, then rejoin. But this happening on the Nautiloid? Better reload.
