...I wonder, with a high Negotiation / Charismatic [b]roll[/b], can we recruit NPCs to join our little party? It'd help us fill whole in our group.

Yes, yes you can. You can do anything you want really (like you could have even asked Captain Selvus if you could have brought any guards with you or if there was any other way for him to help. 

There is also the Henchman Trait (which gives you a slightly weaker than you traveling companion. I also realized that it is not up there, damn I was lazy with traits, should have put more up, was hoping that you guys would also get cool ideas and make a bunch XD)
