[Suggestion] Carry other players on your shoulders

[Link16]

The mechanic is very simple. Characters can carry others on their shoulders, if they are bigger than the one they want to carry. (Could be race-bound, as in the bigger races can carry the smaller ones, or one that's at least of the same size)

It's a social/emote option available in other MMOs (ex: Mabinogi), and it would be a great addition to the socializing/role-playing aspect of the game, which the development team strives well to keep improving on.

This thread can be used too for brainstorming on the impacts of the implementation of such a mechanic, on points such as:
-Should the carrying character walk at the normal speed, or walk speed (so it's not used simply for transporting a friend)?
-How would it happen? I think one of the 2 characters who want to do it could either ask to be carried, or ask to carry.
-Should the character who's carrying be limited of all emotes, except the face ones? That would make this easier for implementation. Meanwhile, the one being carried behaves as if it was on a mount.

More Lala racism going on

It would be great if it would happen automatically in dungeons and raids when people are being carried.
