Karlach is an Origin character and Companion in Baldur's Gate 3. She is a Tiefling Barbarian with the Outlander background.
Origin characters can be played as the main character, otherwise, they can be recruited as a companion early on.
She can be recruited without triggering other events by going into Zevlor's Secluded Chamber in the Druid Grove and climbing up the ladder followed by the cragged rock to reach a chest. Jumping down from there will place you right next to her. There's an Ancient Sigil Circle directly north past the tollhouse.

Background
Karlach was a citizen of the Lower City of Baldur's Gate before being taken prisoner and forced to fight in the Blood War, the eternal conflict between demons and devils. She was a prisoner and champion of Zariel, Archdevil and ruler of Avernus, the first layer of the Nine Hells. Taking a risky chance on escape, Karlach boarded a hostile Mind Flayer ship when it appeared in the sky of Avernus. Using it, she made her escape from the Hells but was infected with a Mind Flayer Tadpole in the process. Now hunted, Karlach is a fugitive on the run from Zariel's forces, who seeks to have her warrior returned to her, and punished.

Romance Spoilers This section reveals details about romance and may contain mature themes.
- Her first scene can be during Chapter One. If the player has Medium approval[Needs Verification] you can drum up the courage to tell her how much you like her. This will lead to Karlach meeting you, once you went to bed and everybody else is asleep. Since you haven't been able to continue with The Hellion's Heart past the first step in Chapter One, you will not be able to touch her. You can convince her, however, to kiss you - which you can either end sooner or embrace the moment, only to burn your lips.
- Once you reach Chapter Two and arrive at the Last Light Inn, you can repair Karlachs Engine with the help of Dammon. During the next long rest (and if no other events are queued), the player can sleep with her.
