Actually, from a pure role-playing perspective, I like the twit. Why? Because he's the only character in the game who actually changes based upon the choices you make. If you take him down the "good" path, his alignment changes, he gets a title upgrade, and he gets a much higher Wisdom score. If you take him down the "dark" path, a corresponding change occurs as well.

Granted, I haven't played a female lead, so I have no idea how soppy/sappy the guy gets in it *shudder*, but as a counterpart to a male lead, he is a more than competent fighter/cleric, filling two needed slots at once. Plus, the way the more chaotic characters in the game rib him, it's a scream! Jan's "Ano the Dung Orc" story had me rolling, and even Nalia gives him a jibe or two. Keldorn and he almost come to blows (and both of them are Lawful and at the same organization!) ToB note: If you play through ToB, Imoen ribs him as well,

P.S. I realize this is a day late and several dollars short, but in future, when responding to posts, please watch the language. No matter how frustrated one is, saying that a character "sucks d***" is totally unacceptable here. Thanks!
