Players of the MMO EverQuest II are now able to change the appearance and names of their characters through a new system introduced by Sony Online Entertainment.
Characters can alter themselves by taking a potion, which must be bought from SoE’s Station Marketplace. The ‘Potion of Amnesia’ (1500 Station Cash) allows players to change a character’s name, and the ‘Potion of Disgenderment’ (1500 Station Cash) grants the player a one-time opportunity to change their character’s appearance and/or gender. If you want the whole package, the ‘Norrathian Witness Protection Pack’ (2500 Station Cash) provides both potions.
For the first time, EQII players can change the characters they may have been playing for over four years, since the game launched. The ability to change a character’s gender and appearance was recently introduced to World of Warcraft, which has proved to be very popular. However, at a cost of £12 GBP, €12 EUR or $15 USD per application, it’s not to everyone’s taste.
