The only reason why I don't use Lae'zel is because Karlach exists and she's a goddess (who also fills a similar party niche)

Lae’zel has been benched since I got Karlach. Karlach just hits so, so much harder and has so, so many hit points.

My first play-through I one-shotted Karlach while she was moping. Didn’t catch on she was a party member until later.

Well, you get to keep the OG Wyll appearance in that case!

Team Karlach forever! We just need a Bard so I can stake Astarion and never look at his smug, sadistic ass ever again.

There is a bard but she is easy to miss.

Alfira (the teeth-ling bard in the Emerald Grove) can join you. But you have to have the Dark Urge in your party and do a unique interaction that afterward will allow her to join you. In solo, the only way to have the Dark Urge is to select it as your PC.
