Would be awesome honestly they wouldn't need voice acting they could just be mute like the player.

    Absolutely! I have always wanted this. I would really like to be able to park copies of my characters inside their own houses. They should obviously not be visible if you log in with that character.

    This would be great for RP as well, Alts could be there for meetings and such!

    I've always been a huge advocate for a create-a-companion system or a create-a-houseguest system, where we can either duplicate our already existing characters, or make one that's completely new so that we can design companions for ourselves.

    They can be mute, with basic dialogue to access companion utilities and menus. Let us chose the class based on the companions we already have (Or other preset models). If they wanted to go a little further, the basic access dialogue could have several different "personalities" to pick from, with very basic voices we chose, similar to the way we pick a "voice" on the character selection screen.

    Or they could create a system that lets us edit their dialogue ourselves. Since only the player can see it, I don't see how it would be problematic. (I doubt this would ever happen, but I can dream xD)

    Let us access our own inventory of collected outfits/motifs/hair styles/makeup/accessories/dyes to add to them. Or just give us a fully unlocked character creator with all these options available to make the most interesting companions/houseguests we can come up with.

    I've bought custom companion slots or cards in other games in the past to access exactly this kind of functionality, and I would definitely be more than willing to purchase them in ESO.

    Legends never die
    They're written down in eternity
    But you'll never see the price it costs
    The scars collected all their lives
    When everything's lost, they pick up their hearts and avenge defeat
    Before it all starts, they suffer through harm just to touch a dream
    Oh, pick yourself up, 'cause
    Legends never die

    WAY back when there was a mod for Skyrim that allowed you to make a custom companion based on a character you had edited in the character creation menu.

    Excellent idea!

    I've been a big advocate for allowing much more companions or 'Special Furniture' into houses. Housing seems dead without a vibrant environment.

    I previously asked for the ability to add interactive guests (i.e. those that interact with each other) into houses as well. For instance I want a group of guests sitting and chatting at a table (walk into a bar in Tamriel and you will see what I mean). I want guests walking about drunk, interacting with other guests.

    Also, my main house is also a temple of worship. I want a priest reading and preaching to his congregation while they sit and listen to what he is saying.

    Essentially i want the ability to have much more freedom around what our guests can do and I think allowing our alts to be included is a great shout!
