One way to do this is to change your character's class and alignment to Lawful/Neutral Good before Nathaniel joins your party, and then change it back later using ShadowKeeper. You'll have to keep your alignment change though. There's a post written about this in another thread; I'll quote the relevant bit here since that thread contains spoilers.

This should be posted under the "Nathaniel and thieves thread", but if your character duals to a thief (or if you use Shadowkeeper or another editor to make him a dual, single or multi class thief) after Nathaniel joins your party, he will usually complain, but will remain with you and even romance your character if your alignment remains Lawful or Neutral Good, and you behave accordingly. (One one run through the game, he didn't even protest after I dual classed my character into a thief.) He'll dump you for being "too chaotic" in the TOB epilogue if you don't change your class back before you choose to stay with him as a mere mortal. You can get around this by editing your character back to a non thief just before the game ends, by dumping him for an immortal, interplanar existence (the epilogue for this choice is a real tear jerker), or by editing FHNATH09.ada (this is the .ada file that runs the epilogue if you are a thief and stay with Nathaniel): change the second column default string reference from 79353 to something happier: 79351 gives the two of you a happy future with an adopted family, 79352 gives you a happy future together after a fight over your not entirely law abiding but good past, and 79350 gives you a happy future together after Nathaniel struggles with depression when his father dies.
