Should be account-wide.
I know, I know. People are just going to say that I'm cheap and etc. etc. Maybe that's true. But I just don't see anyone wanting to track down 6 (or 16) of each pet, each emote, etc. Bump up the prices a bit. But make them account-wide so that I don't have to remember which character has what.
Also, if we ever have pet battles (crossing fingers we get pet battles) it would suck if pets were character-specific. If they were account-wide I'd be able to battle my pets on any character - which would be great.
Also, I'd really like to see a separate page for pets. It's really strange that they are under abilities. They should have their own page that we can summon them from - without having to put them on the bar.
Edit: I realize you can cast pets from the scroll (via right click), but still.
