giving the ability to the player to summon your other characters you created in personal story line events or dungeons
(not able to summon in PvE open world, WvW or PvP)

Calling for your other player created characters should also not be possible when in a group, thus preventing people from doing a dungeon or story line with players and npc back up, you should have to choose, ether players, or npc’s.

summoning your other created characters should be done by opening the group menu in the left corner of your screen and type the names of your other characters, summoning them as NPC followers,
they should be given a script much like other npc’s from dungeon’s and the personal story lines so they can co-operate with the player to get them true the story/dungeon

the summoned npc should only have and use the weapons and armor that are currently equipped on the character itself,
the skills they can use should also only be the same ones they have equipped (only using the skills the player equipped on the character)

the summoned NPC’s should scale up or down to the player’s current level.
when they die they should remain dead instead of re-spawning, but be able to be revived much like any other NPC but they should also be able to remain fighting while downed first instead of instantly dying when there health is depleted to 0, to simulate the same behavior form other players, as well as giving them a chance to rally.

The summoned player NPC’s should not level, nor gain any progression while summoned, but instead only serve as a NPC back up party


why the idea to summon your own other created characters?

1- tough a lot of people love to play dungeons and personal story events with random people or friends, there are also a lot of players that would love to do so alone with npc back up only

2- It will give the illusion where even after you finish your personal story line with 1 character, he/she can be called to help your lower leveled character, as if your higher leveled character’s story line is still progressing as aiding the weaker in Tyria

Of course I am sure a lot of people will be able to fill this screen with countless comments on why this is not a good idea, but instead try to name reasons why you would like the idea, rather then hating it. More importantly, “why not”?
players who would not like this idea would not be forced to use it, nor would it effect anybody’s gameplay except for the ones making use of the system.
