Oh yeah, I want a LOT of non origin companions of various kinds. Different races and combos, even non traditional races like monsters or full animals. There are many characters currently in the game who could make great companions, maybe have them join in at level 3 so their subclass or extra feature is already picked out and so they feel more established. They don't need to be in depth and there could be an added thing making that they can't or don't engage in conversation unless it is very related to them. Give them some dialogue to say in specific areas, and it'll feel like we can have a varied party.
Also increase party size to 6 so we can actually play around with a balanced and varied party.
