Yes you recruit the other origins. But will the personality ai (like in DOS where you could assign a personality to your 2nd character) be active?

So if I recruit the red prince and my main character talks to the recruited red prince. Will the red prince AI kick in?
When I kill a lizard will the recruited red prince get angry and come talk to me (or worse fight me)

Not in the mood for cheese?
That excuse has more holes than a slice this fine Gorgombert!
