The first idea would be very handy! It's so annoying when logging out, logging back in with a new char, then a bad token. D:
As for the second Idea, I'm not so sure about that, it would take alot of work, and a tiny pup picking up a giant tiger? XD you would need some sort of ''Weight'' system to make it seem a bit more realistic in my opinion, which would take a lot of coding and such.''
