I think:
1. Korgan - Very good dwarf-speeches I never got tired of + he is the BEST fighter.
2. Anomen - I found his stories quite amusing. He is a fighter/cleric, which is better than a pure cleric. His lower wisdom in the beginning, doesn't matter, because higher wisdom only gives more spell-slots to the first 3 levels or so, which you don't use that often anyway. (I didn't) I let Anomen use Carsomyr, which really improves his THACO.
3. Valygar - Good voice that you don't get tired of either. He can use stealth and backstab + he is a good fighter.
4. Jaheira - Useful in most skills, but master of none. The sidequests are very good, yes.
5. Jan - Has great thief-skills when you get him because of his items. He is a funny little gnome.
The worst npc is Nalia! When I was helping her free the castle and killing some trolls, the idiot girl said "How are we helping the less fortunate traugging (???) around in here". She is just annoying. Her thief skills are really bad too, but she is a good mage.
