You might want to wait on picking up Edwin, for two reasons:

1: If you don't talk to Edwin at all, and come back to him later in the game, he'll have more hitpoints, and he'll have the all-important dot in missile weapons. Mages only get a d4 hitpoint roll, so on each level up, Edwin (and Xzar as well) can only get 1-4 hitpoints. (This isn't counting constitution bonus.) But there is a small bonus to picking him up early: he gets one extra 1st level and one extra 2nd level spell as a bonus ability.

2: Edwin gets his special abilities from that amulet he wears. You know, the amulet from the special group? There's a battle in Chapter 3 that can get your party some decent mid-level gear...but if Edwin's in the party, the people will just greet him and leave. No exp, no gear.
