I know BL is an RPG where you play a single charachter! But this has the backside that you do things that someone with your status would never do! I´m a ruler! no sane ruler personally tries a sneaky prisonbreak! Still, I want the feature and I want to able to play it!
Let me play the prisonbreak as a companion! Or the Hideout attack! Or the battle. I´m not talking about the campaignmap movement - I talk about the actual scenario! Let me send them on a mission, when they arrives, give a dialogue where I can choose to lead the operation as the assigned companion.
The "backside" is the somewhat lower "risks" for your charachter when doing these kinds of operations. But today, losing a companion and his/her gear is often a minor thing. This is really things not all companions would do for you - A trust thing! A trusted agent should really be more worth than a few days of captivity for you(if you are not a king... ofcource...!) Agents are really a promoted Companion!
In my mind, this would bring both charachter, immersion and and above all - importance to the companions and their skills/equipment.
