Ideas for a fun playthrough: Wild Mage or Jester?

Hi everyone,

I got the itch to play BG again, all the way to ToB, but I wanted something new. I'm tired of most NPCs by this point, so for BG1 I'll probably just keep Imoen around, or I might go just plain solo…

I'm now torn between Wild Mage and Jester. Wild Mage because I never played much with a wizard-type protagonist, and the Wild Mage seems very interesting. Jester because I like the versatility of the bard (having played a Blade extensively) and that Jester Song could create some interesting tactics.

What do you think? Any other ideas for a duet/solo game?

Thanks!
