Just have them auto level from zero to whatever level you are. They already do it when you're level 2 or more, which is pretty easy to reach before meeting any party members so it's not like it'd change anything really

As considering that you level them up beyond the initial level 1 manually anyway. It's not like it impacts their origins or characterization or anything. The creators can even still leave them with the same default starting equipment to encourage players to try them out as a certain role and diversify.

The skills might be tricky but it's just as easy to just place the skill book in their pockets
