Icewind Dale II - Help with Characters

[The Lurker]

UPDATE: I bit the bullet and decided to start again with new characters.  I've tried to follow the advice of Mummelmann and others.  How do these look as freshly generated characters?  Some members have changed names, others professions and races.  Is this a good, balanced party?  I have six this time!  I also have a better mix of guys and girls.  I'm a little worried about Astrid ... should I have given her more dexterity?
