Therein lies the kicker. Aerie can take on the role of two people. If you cannot have both Edwin and Viconia, then Aerie can compensate; but this is an unusual scenerio since Edwin and Viconia are evil NPCs, and Aerie is a good NPC. So we have to compare good with good.

Anomen, Nalia, Jan, Imoen and Jaheira.

Chances are, people will want to keep Imoen and Jaheira. Minsc and Jan are high contenders as well.

So we have you,
Minsc,
Jaheira,
Jan,
Imoen/Yoshimo
~~blank~~

When Jan is 'discovered', we can kick out Yoshimo. Nalia might be taken if the player is not a Mage. If the player is indeed a Mage, then Aerie will be wonderful as a background spellcaster, since Jaheira is usually used as a tank.

Jan is not the best backup spellcaster, because Aerie beats him flat with her superior selection; but... but... he is an excellent Thief.
