Not a poll, just a query.
Me, I'd LOVE to see the bat-shit craziness of Morte in a BG game.
He would probably be hard pressed to survive such magic oriented chapters that ToB has but could you imagine the start of BG after Gorion dies?
"Heya! it's me! Morte!"
"What the....? You bloody @$%^!!!"
"Hmmm, new taunts!"

The obvious choice would prolly be Dak'kon. It was a long time a go I played PS:T, but he's a gith right? Maybe some cool interactions and banters could be had with him when encoutnering gith in the game.
Ignatus was quite funny IIRC. The thief, I don't recall her name, would be cool as well. Maybe as a tiefling (a thiefling! muahaha) she could add another dimension to the charname/haer'dalis/aerie love triangle to make it a really juicy love cubicle!
I would design a companion quest for Morte like this:
When you defeat the dreadful lich, you take his skull and a letter. When you open the letter, it reads
Call from the darkness and I'll become your friend,
In latin I'm death but don't you fret.
Search for the light,
together we'll shed fear.

And then the lich's skull would be released of the spell as Morte.
Annah-of-the-Shadows could be found in Planar sphere or trapped with Haer'Dalis, hypothetically.
Kinda nostalgic for Planescape Torment. Patiently awaiting for PST: EE. If only there would be additional content with it.
Morte would be great fun!
Maybe you could loot some of Firkraag's teeth for him and then have Cespenar upgrade them in ToB. Advantage: Hit as a +4 weapon, cause 2d8 fire damage on hit. Disadvantage: Slightly slur his speech, making Litany of Curses less effective (granting enemies +1 to Save vs. Litany).
As soon as he starts wooing her, she would be like: Oh shut up, you twerp.
And I don't think our sparrow takes such insolences lightly.
Aerie and her though could be interesting.
Morte and Kangaxx is ofc an intruiging thought and almost a classic already. Like the Firkraag idea as well.
But I vote for Nordom and to keep the balance also for Martha.
