Karlach can be romanced by characters of any gender. When romanced, Karlach's inability to touch their partner, and the pain of being physically isolated from everyone for so long, are issues that would have to be explored and overcome together.

Back on the first plane of the Hells, Karlach and company prepare themselves to face the servants of Zariel. No longer alone, Karlach welcomes the challenge and readies her weapon in preparation of advancing imps.

During [[Withers|Withers']] gathering six months after the events of the game, Karlach mentions she and Wyll recently felled a high ranking [[Cambion|cambion]] who carried blueprints for what could be a possible solution to Karlach's mechanical heart. Though the forge they intend to raid is likely well-guarded by Zariel's forces, she has an old contact, a guard named Flo, that might be able to help them. Regardless, she expresses joy at being able to see her companions once more, happy to receive the opportunity of a night's rest without the danger of being ambushed by devils. She also comments that being in the Hells is not so bad when she's with the one she loves, indicating she's begun a relationship with Wyll if not already in one with the player.{{ref|[[Epilogue]], ambient line spoken by Karlach during Withers' gathering when both she and Wyll ended up in Avernus by the end of the game, neither romanced.<br>''"I guess Avernus isn't too bad if you're with the one you love..."''}}

Still, having him there has been incredible. You really can get through anything with someone you love at your side."''}}{{note|Karlach's quote about Wyll isn't elaborated further, and can be interpreted as platonic or romantic love.}}
