I only saw it briefly in a video... is there more information on creating custom companions during the gameplay?

Pretty cut and clear to me. It kills you if your stamina reaches zero from the ability.

Oh a bowl of cheer. I thought you create your own companions at some point?

Will we be able to split our party by selecting "1" or "2" or even selecting the entire group with a hotkey? I've noticed in all the videos players have to drag and click on the map to select all of the party... Can this be avoided by assigning hotkeys?
