The Redemption/Corruption Party

Judging by one of Dee's posts in the answers topic it seems alignments may have some fluidity amongst the new npcs in BG2EE.
That got me to thinking about a party based on redemption. Just assuming that only the new thief can change alignment, a party with Viconia, Sarevok, and the new Thief gives you 3 different people you can change for the better.
The opposite party based on corruption might be interesting too but Anomen is the only one I can think of offhand who can be turned to something less than good (though CN isn't exactly evil). I'm curious if we'll see any other options amongst the npcs to turn them towards the "dark side". The new thief may not even start out as evil. For all we know she could be neutral and shift one way or the other depending on your style of play. That could make her pretty interesting and add more options to the party that wants to turn people bad.
It'll be interesting to see who's alignment can shift to what once BG2EE is released.

As far as I know, you can change Anomen (depending on his quest), redeem Sarevok (->CG) and Viconia (->Neutral).
Actually, I can imagine Overhaul have laid out something along :
a) corrupt and jade Rasaad to get him to Neutral. (Evil seems too against his personality)
b) Redeem Dorn and get him to be Chaotic Neutral...but I think he is too hardened for that and it would rather open a possibility for the CHARNAME to turn Evil (if he/she isn't already).
c) Neera is Chaotic Neutral and so instable (in BGEE) that it would be actually quite easy to swing her into any other direction (CG, NE)
