Only Humans Elves and Orcs? No Nagas, Goblins/Harpies/Centaurs or Genies?

I think playing a serpentine creature such as a Naga in first/third person would feel weird. Combat is supposed to be similar to Dark Messiah and well, having a Naga or Genie jumping and rolling around would just look weird.
I am happy with Orcs, Elves and Humans.
Plus, you can play as a human of the Seven Cities and a dark elf et cetera.
But all the creatures you mentioned will appear as NPCs/monsters. Since the Naga worship Shalassa, I am certain of that there are some Naga dragon knights out there.
Now with H6 out, I can finally start working on the story and I will change a lot of the Origins so that some of them connect a bit to the campaigns in H6.

Yes.
Each Companion will have its own skills, abilities and spells. They can be dismissed at any time.
I've added the Stat, Leveling and Skill system plus added three Main skills and their sub-skills (Attack, Defense and Sorcery)
A note on Imbue Weapon/Armour: If you for instance want Imbue Weapon: Water then you must have Advanced Water magic as a skill.
So you will never be able to get all of the Imbue Weapon/Armour enhancements. The Imbues can be swapped in 1 second in combat.
I will explain the Magic system later, but basically there are Basic and Advanced spells. Everybody can learn Basic spells, but Advanced Spells can only be learnt if you have choosen for instance Advanced Prime Magic as one of your five main skills.

Hell Yeah, this is going on!
I especially like the imbue skills, Scholar and Might & Magic!
I'm not so into one defense for magical AND physical issues.
Also, I have some questions/notes to some of the other skills:
-Cleave: So you allways hit two targets if possible? Even when one of them is behind you?
-Berserker: What is an instant power attack? (did i overread it?)
-First Blood: First Strike means the First strike in a battle? Or the First Strike tha lowers your HP beneath 100% (so when you'd enter a battle with only 75% health, first blood wouldnt trigger...)
-Last Stand: ...even when you had less than 20% health before it? That sounds quite imba, even with that cooldown.
-Eagle Eye: Spell learning for the win...shouldn't there be more of a cap? A cooldown or such?!
-Soulfire: Whams. A bit strong maybe?

Cleave causes your melee attacks to hit two enemies in front of you instead of one.
A power attack deals 100% more damage, but takes 3 seconds to charge unless Luck triggers. When Luck triggers, your hero does an automatic instant power attack. Some abilities trigger Power attacks.
First blood triggers on the very first strike made against you in combat.
Yeah, Last Stand puts you at 20% health which isn't A LOT. I think it's okay since you can only use it once a day, and that someone much more powerful or skilled than yourself would probably kill you at 20% anyway.
Eagle Eye can only teach you spells that you can use. So you won't be able to copy Implosion at lvl 1 from it.
I don't think Soulfire is OP, since Energy generates really fast. It's a skill which reduces downtime when there are multiple enemies around and you use a lot of expensive spells.
Also the third elven origin is the Sea elves 
edit: Added the five factions and some info about them!
In the main story, the Hero will also have to choose between two more factions.

its a huge amount of work so I will probably focus on finishing my H6 Academy first, then make my ICTC faction and after that I might finish this
