Idea. What about adding our characters to housing?

Well pretty much what the title is, what if we could place our characters in our houses? That way homes don't seem so dead all the time. Perhaps even allow them to do emotes while idle, like /sweep or /rake. You could put all your characters in a home, then log onto a different character to place the character you were on previously inside. Also, whenever you log onto a specific character and go into the house, that character will simply just be invisible.

If this isn't a good idea or can't be done, what about "hiring" npc's and be able to place them in your home? I also think it would be cool to be able to change our assistants costume to any that we own and allow them to do any emote while idle.. Anyways i just woke up and while drinking my coffee I had this idea lol

    Love this idea! Endless possibilities! Just to go a bit further, I’d love a farm where I could grow the actual produce and herbs we use to cook with in game and add on more farm animals and npcs... you could “hire” them as you said..you would pay for the upkeep and resources...
    one other idea you mentioned... coffee! I need to go brew some myself now :)

    What about using your second charater as target dummy?

    I very much like this idea. Several of my toons exist only to serve me. Not allowing them to work my estate is denying them their destiny.

    yeah this is a pretty popular idea and I'd love it too. does anyone know if the devs have said whether this is possible or not? I've never seen it addressed by them yet

    Or add a hologram of your characters to your house! CWC uses holograms, so it would be pretty cool and not as lore-breaking to "attune" a hologram to a character.

    My sorceress and templar are housemates, but since they're my characters they can't be in the house at the same time, so being able to place one in the house would be nice.
