I've juste finished the game, and it was a real pleasure to discover baldur's gate again. I found the story well writen, did'nt expect the outcome.
Caelar was probably the best part of the game to me. I really enjoyed her..
So I did some test... Spoilers begin

I thought about Caelar end, and a possibility to saver her later in BG2 (Likely a mod, or DLC).
So, I use the CTRL +Q cheat to add Caelar to my own group
And I discover that she already has a lot of details, like a party NPC. Other NPC do not have such design, as an example Hephernaam do not have specific item, not a biography. Caelar look like a joinable NPC, so I'm guessing beambog lean to her a future NPC
She's voiced, and has a biography
Depending on the outcome she's either :
- A level 15 lawful good fighter (Paladin would be better for a mod)
- A level 15 lawful evil Blackgard
Equipement :
- Mail of the hallowed hero +3
Protection from evil
Immunity to poison and disease
Armor class : 2
- Circlet of the cynosure
Protection from critical hits
Immunity to fear, charm and paralysis
- Aether edge +3
Long sword
30% magic resistance
+2 damage against fiend
- Solar aegis
+1 constitution
Armor class +4
Fire resistance +40%
- Golden circle
+3 Ac against slashing
Do you think adding her in a DLC/Mod, in the end of SOA or in TOB could be a good idea?
She could eitheir be for evil of good party due to the alignement change at the end of SOD

Her equipment is a bit too good for SoA though, so she'd either have to be a late joiner (hate those) or be nerfed.
Or we could meet a buffed up version of Caelar at the beginning of ToB since the pocket plane gives charname the ability to travel through planes
Amelyssan got me really annoyed for all the wrong reasons. I thought she was a weak villain and didnt fool me for one second througout most of ToB.
Caelar was excellent. While I still prefer Sarevok and Irenicus as villains for wanting to kill them so bad, Caelar actually had me going through a number of different reactions. Irritation, sympathy, contempt and even a bit of respect at the end.
To be honest my character would probably have been just as capable of being so selfish and single minded in pursuit of such a goal. Only he wouldnt have hid it so well. He wouldnt have hid it at all but he was chaotic neutral hehe.
Caelar is definitely a highlight of this great expansion and if she gets Sarevok'ed in any potential future content that would be damn awesome in my view.
I'd love to have her join me. She has a really nice avatar too, I was sort of hoping I could kill her and get her loot and make an NPC with her items and appearance.
Very interesting, thanks!
You could simply create a custom NPC which is easy to do from the character creation screen now and do it manually, putting in the stats you feel like she should have and so on. If you want the right soundset then you'd have to extract it or wait for some other clever person to do it, or just make a whole Caelar NPC mod.
There's also a cheatcode to do that stuff but it might mess up your game?
Endgame spoiler here friends, please be aware!
When you start a new game after you finish creating your character but before you click "ACCEPT" you can click on a button that says "CREATE PARTY" and you will able to make another character. You can just give that character the Caelar portrait and give her the class and stats that you like. That character will then start the game alongside yours, even from the start of BG1.
The only problem is that she won't have the Caelar voice, you'd have to use one of the normal ones for making characters. By extracting I meant a way of taking that voice set from the game and making it usable in character creation, but that is a pretty complicated process.
If you can't live without her items then you'd have to get the cheat codes for them or use a save editor, I'm sure someone around here has already discovered them.

Seems legit! Sign me up!
Seriously, people on the Sword Coast are DUMB.
Didn't know that, my party was full when I runned into the final battle. That explain a lot of things.
I haven't managed to let her keep her voice. I guess a c:CreateCreature would allow to create her and CTRL +Q her.. but I do not find her game name
About a mod,
- May be we could find her while in the hell chapter (Not sure if that is possible as technically we are in bhaal realms)
- A lesser demon could lure us into avernus again, either for rescueing her or loot her (for evil party).
- The planar sphere could also be used
- She may leave Avernus for another hell sphere, allowing us to see a new plan in the mod
- She could join late in SOA, or at the beginning of TOB with a level adjustement
- The blackgard version is killed by the party, but still talk to Aun Argent after.. May be she was alive when leaved Avernus
Do you know how can I add her voice in the game for the create character option voice ?
Nope, I actually just set her to exportable and exported/imported through the game. Whenever you import a character you need to reselect a voice and an appearance. I don't know about the items but I assume that they aren't imported because they are flagged as undroppable.
