Trust Alliance System

[KorPoni]

Instead of killing the party menu when trusts are out, that spot can open up a special trust system allowing players to alliance other players with trust npcs out. Also, can set special options related to trust in future under that menu, kind of how party disbanding is blocked if party leader in alliance, can block certain options in party menu rather than the whole party menu option altogether.

Or just let us mix real humans and trusts in the same party, like they promised us months ago.

* Alter egos may become available in parties and alliances in the future.
