Like the books but is there any way we could havs the books be slung on the hip, a lot of peeps have descriptions of having a hip slung book for wizards and ive seen neck slots and wing slots be used to that end as they are attached to the torso and thus look like they swing independent of the legs.
You'd probably want that to be a belt appearance, so that it moves with the hip.

Could be either/or. Belt slot needs love too but belts dont work with robes as far as im aware. Thats why usually its a neck or a wing slot

All of this looks great! As for an idea, uh, fake bat/bird wings (like, obviously made out of wood or something). A dumb idea, i know.

I already posted saying this once but these are incredible. I would absolutely love to see these added in game, it really opens up the backpack slot to do some really cool things.

Possibly silly and may have already been mentioned but - would it be possible to do some sort of... trail? Like a long scarf thrown back? Or a hair extension type thing? Again probably a silly idea.
This too shall pass.

To add to what some others have said but with some slight modifcations:

Coffin slightly open with a skeletal hand sticking out, Blackguard lugging around their undead

Alchemical tubing looking thing like a flesh golem might have, could be part of allowing for customizable looking golems

Familiar cage (with a pixie or other familiar choice inside)

Oh wow an extra set of arms... I mean I am not sure how or if we'd use it, but I have to say I love the concept!

Dragonfly wings.

Whenever my character is carrying a bookshelf, I RP that he's got it strapped to his back. Could we get a bookshelf for the back?

Since gnome in a cage was offered as an option, can we also get goblin and/or kobold in a cage :lol: ?

Also, a quick note, I know that tail accessories get removed if you use a racial shapeshift ability, like werewolf form or totem druid, and when doing so until now, the only way to reapply the tail was via getting a DM to bring you back into the cosmetics room so you can have it specially re-applied. I'm not sure if the same issue applies to wings, but the same NPC is used to apply those, so it stands to reason that it would similarly get removed when racial-shifting.

Some sort of fix or workaround for either might be needed if a more widespread application of wing accessories is planned.

List of things that are impossible:
(and are frequently asked for/expected to be frequently asked for)
  • Anything that matches your customized appearance weapons and shields. Sadly, you will have to match your customized weapons and shields to the appearance of the backpack and not the other way around, because doing otherwise would require modeling every single variation of every single weapon in the game and putting them into the list of wing slot accessories. That would not only be way too much work, but also would force everyone to have to sift through hundreds of weapon combinations while trying to find the other wing slot accessories.
This is absolutely fair. Would it be possible to get a single "Greensteel Greatsword" appearance added to the back? As it stands, you only have the "Gemstone" appearances available for Greensteel Greatswords, so you can't actually utilize the "match the backpack" technique that I've been doing.

This stuff is awesome. Keep up the fantastic work, man. :D
