    Namingway Card items?

    So we have bottles of Fantasia to enable a player to change their appearance, race, gender, etc. Problem is, it doesn't seem to enable a name change. I understand one reason for not allowing this is to curtail a possible avenue of further character theft by hackers and RMT - you know, change the character's appearance and name, suddenly the old character doesn't exist and will be harder to give back to the owner...

    I digress. I know some people who have done the complete appearance change, but they don't like having to keep their old name since it doesn't fit the new character design, and they'd like to have a name which is lore-appropriate for the new model.

    Don't change how Fantasia works but, instead, consider the addition of Namingway cards. It's an item which fits the classic FF lore, giving a nod to previous titles, and fulfills the function of enabling a person to change their name. Make it a rare/unique item like the Fantasia potions. Maybe a future veteran reward, or event-related item?

    Thumbs up! I think this should be added for sure.

    I hope NOT! Not everyone is looking to change the name (or look) and I personally see using the veteran rewards for this as a waste - lets have some rewards which everyone can benefit from and have the name change or character change done a separate way please ...

    Totally agree with this! The Fantasia allows for gender change too, so a lot of people might want to change their name for that reason.

    Bump of support. Though, if I ever bought the card, I'd want to have Namingway personally deliver it.

    Yea something like this needs to happen. The Fantasia is useless for alot of people that want to change their character but can't because of their name (aka me)

    Yeah it would be hilarious to see female "John Smith" just because they can only change the gender, not the name. Lol
