Who wants to join my campaign...Bipeds for Beauty (our slogan is make bipeds beautiful again)
The BFB (me) wants more design options for bipeds!
I'm talking, on character creation:
-Scars (facial and body)
-War paints (facial and body)
-Wider variety of skin tones (i think the race that best shows this is satyrs: we have white as a ghost, dark, and maybe a 3rd skin tone i forgot?)
-Wider variety of hair styles. This includes but is DEFINITELY not limited to: mohawks for ladies too, undercuts, bowl cuts, bobs for the ladies that look actually like bobs, beaded hairs outside of saris, headbands, bald hairs which show that lil patch of dark/shadey bits so not egg head bald but my hair is shaved constantly bald y'know, pony tails, i'm not really an expert on mens hair styles so sorry for the female focus...no limit to gender for all of those, too!
-Wider variety of racial hair styles. Now, this is most obvious with satyrs, SARIS, and dryads, as the few races which DO have race exclusive hair styles, but would be nice if more races got racial focus styles and there was more variety. Like...in the saris, differnet coloured/styles of headbands and beads, dryads need TRULY bushy hair (like y'know those camouflage suits like http://images.esellerpro.com/2294/I/122/58/$_57%20copy.jpg this? imagine the hair stle based off of that :P) too. Not exaclty sure what kind of styles other races could have because i don't know the themes that well...but half giants seem like they'd have a lot of long hair styles for both genders - yes men too!
-Stemming off of racial hairstyles...gnomes should have optional war paint which is actually spilt oil from working on those machines all day on their faces :P A lil blackened cheeks never hurt a gnome...not any gnome that's not a fire mage anyway.
-Wider variety of hair colour. I mean, we have...blue..red...brown...blonde...black...dark purple? I think that's it. It would be nice for more shades of ALL of those colours. So light blue, dark blue, turquoise....scarlet, bright red, maroon...dark brown, light brown, more of a maroon but not quite brown...bright yellow, sandy....lilac, i think most hair colours can/should have 3-5 shades really. As well, new hair colours completely - like green, pink, colour mixes aside purple/red too.
-Body hair options. I want a lil chest hair on my bipeds, maybe some really hairy legs and arms too!
Some armour changes would be nice too...
Now, i don't want ANY stats or types or anything not purely aesthetic about armour to change. I really want...
-Armour "options".
I want bare chested character with maybe only a small chest plate attatched with leather strips so some of the chest/body shows!
I want people redefining "fortified" with blocky, heavy armour....
I want shoulder pads with spikes on them!
I want my leather armour to be like a fiery dire wolf! (Other animals are available :P Deer hide, other wolf types, heck even ruxus armour) AND drenched over my shoulders so i can show off my precious wolf hide like Cruella de Vil :P
And animal-head based headgear, too, kinda like the stormcloak bear armour from skyrim (forsworn also applicable examples), i wanna the skull of an elk or wolf as my headgear!
I'm not entirely sure how that would be implemented, but i would literally sacrifice a human to niatha moraven to have them. Since stats wouldn't change, just aesthetic, perhaps a second "dye" (applied like a dye kit, anyway) that turns a peice of armour into a different style, as multiple formula just gets complicated.
-Capes, obviously.
Don't get me started on satyrs...
So satyrs, i think need at character creation...
-Body hair options. Options which allow the neck/chest and wrist/arm hair to be removed, lightened (in terms of density of hair), or increased in density even.
-Body hair having a different colour option to head hair. To give that context, i'd love to give a satyr blonde head-hair, but honestly the yellow body-hair makes me wanna puke - it may make it look better! That's just my personal opinion, though, but i'd also give my satyrs grey body hair if i could make their head hair a different colour...and vice versa! Having ALL hair one colour just makes some designs look awful, so different colour options for head and body hair please.
-And more on the satyr hair...more colours! Doing the suggestion just above there - seperating hair colours for body/head - also gives way to more hair colours without having a magenta on the whole body party satyr (not that i'd hate that, of course ;p), refer to variety of hair colour in the first block of suggestions.
