I'm experiencing the same problems, both in the character creation and in game. I also happened to make a Godlike Aumaua character.
This drop in FPS is rendering the game to near unplayability. Specially since the screen scrolling lags the game for even the tiniest movements.
I am however playing on a laptop ( a good one) and that might have some impact to what I am experiencing.
My specs:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64x
Intel Core i7-2670 2.20Ghz (8 cores)
8GB DDR3 RAM
*Wince* Intel HD graphics 3000 (built in)
I'm currently playing Divinity: Original Sin and Defiance on the same laptop without problems so I don't think the problem is spec related.
I'll try to make a character that is less polygon heavy and report back.
