Cernd the druid was the exact same. Had a 9 in dex, 13 in strength, 13 in con. The difference in companion ability scores was kinda crazy in BG 1 and 2 also. There was a 28 point difference between the characters with the most and least stats. Think if it as they rolled for the companions stats instead of point buying. More random so your party isn't perfect, it's random, flawed people that you have to use to the best of your ability. There will also be the option to make your own custom party of awesomeness, either a full party or 3 man in case they don't let us leave custom companions in camp so that you can still do all the companion quests.
