    Triple Triad quest to add our own character portrait to a card?

    I know it probably sounds far-fetched, but I was thinking about this a few hours ago and some of the players in-game thought it sounded like a cool idea, so I figured I'd post it here. Would there be any way for you guys to implement a quest (even if it's a long line of battling NPCs before having a final showdown with someone the equivalent of a Primal fight amongst Triple Triad players, lol) in order for us to create our own card to use? What I mean is being able to add our character's portrait to the card (we're a warrior of light, after all!) and adjust the stats of the card as necessary (much like the relic quest where we decide what stats to focus on).

    Of course there will be limitations, but I figure it should be 29 like Bahamut, Cloud, etc. since, well... It's you and you went out of your way to get it. It would just be really nice to create a card with our own specifications (since you know as well as I do there are some cards you like that have great defense on their sides, but you wish something was different about it). It would also make the tournament more interesting when you have players playing their custom card, which is built in a specific way to allow different outcomes, which you may not normally expect or be prepared for (but there will probably need to be a Normal and Custom rule set for the tournament since it would be unfair for them to play against players which haven't completed the quest)!

    I would expect that the way the cards are called, they each have a generic card# that are called, that have the associated image embedded with it. A customizable card means (think, right now we have what 62 cards? You're talking about increasing that card# by +1 for each player) + let's say 250,000 cards. The amount of Space for 62 cards, Vs 250,062 cards.

    You see where there might be an issue? hehe

    Now, if we were to simplify it, and just make a quest where we can put our face onto the face of the Warrior of Light Card. They might be able to toss a variable into the image for the card. Check if quest complete = yes load portrait else load card. The tricky part might be putting your face on your card, and your OPPONENT'S FACE on the card your OPPONENT played. Vs your openent putting down a card, and you seeing your own face.

    Depending on how that is programmed currently, I could see it turning into a rabbit hole.

    That being said, I think it would be a great addition. At least the portrait, if not a customizable card.

    The minion Idea, I love . . . but . . .. what job would it load? the same job/equipment when you earned it? when you summoned it? would it always look EXACTLY like you currently do?

    (I'm the largest Roe. It'd be awesome if I quested for this minion, then fantasia'd into the samllest lalafell, and my Minion was as large as I am! XD)
