Bands
Well I can't give you much info myself, just a modeler and not a programmer, but this sounds alittle related to the newbie monk Npc *Tomer Instogle* quest where you have to bring him back to the his guild and whatever hurts you he'll attack.
I guess you could look at how that works, maybe have a merchant where you have a list of items to buy Ex: white note,blue note, red note, yellow note, etc.
When you give back the note you bought, a quest triggers a spawn that acts like tomer instogle and maybe modify your exp to 50-60% or whichever and he'll follow you around and help you out if your attacked or maybe even show as a pet.
Like the white could be for a level 5 npcs, blue level 10, yellow level 15 etc or maybe even at higher levels there could be items called bands like *Healing band* or *Warrior Band* that could have like 3 npcs following you around Healing band maybe a cleric, enchanter, druid and warrior band a warrior, monk, ranger.
Idk its a fun concept. I see the people that enjoy grouping more might not like it cuz the people that like to solo will just have hired mercs or bands forcing them to do the same cept the bands Ai will probbaly keep some soloers to just stick with normal groups unless the AI is fairly intelligent.
