Turbans?

from Elemental Forums

Would it be possible for Stardock to add a few turbans to the custom sovereign screen and character set-up?   This could be done as a cosmetic headdress, or alternatively, it could be added with bonus/magic properties.

There are several historical figures to model a few turbans on, including Saladin and Sikh warriors.  From a role-playing perspective, it would allow you to add a Middle Eastern and Indian element to the characters.  Those cultures have a rich lore in the magical realms, and there is a whole host of creatures that it could inspire.

I don’t think it should be too difficult to add a graphic for turbans, and the added value would be a broader and more culturally balanced character set.

I'd hope that there will be a large variety of legitimate and silly hats available at launch, with modders and players able to add more as the game gets long in the tooth.

I can't be the only one who imagines the Sov as similar to the T. H. White Merlin, conjuring ridiculously anachronistic hats into being due to a series of miscommunications with his familiar.

Got my vote for lots of Hats including Fez and Turbans

How about Eye Patch, Horn(s), Antler(s), Orb(s),

Pets ie bat, bird or lizard on shoulder.

How about enchanted versions for mages to wear instead of helms?

What about facial scars? ie claw marks on head back or front blade wound on the head or multiples

I agree, there should be a lot more options in all aspects of the custom sovereign and faction screens.  Right now it seems there are just different color versions of the same thing (like the hat).  It should be a single copy of the hat with another button to change color to anything in the pallet, and a lot more hats and other items.
