So For Example IF A Bio Engineer Is so power full with creatures i reckon it should be given the ablility to change a Toons DNA Sturctutre only once per toon on the acc.
SO For example a RODIAN
wants to a Human
... i think the BE should give the ability to do this and it can only happen once per toon in the acc. after that the Toons DNA is too weak to change again.
This Wouldnt effect your Toon in anyway but just change the Toon look. and it wont give that toon the special abilities that Race gets..
For example Rodain has good weapon crafting bonus wouldnt all of a suddeon get Human Abilities it would only be the way it looked the shell of the toon..
What do you think people?

I dont want to appear to flame...because its not an intentional idea, but many times this idea has already come up, and the devs have ignored/not seen it.
I think it should be possible to change race at will. I would suggest involving BE and ID in the process...possibly Docs too.
Although I like my Red Twi'lek Jedi, and would never change...I feel that when I was forced to make a non-reversable choice on my race...I was unaware of the consequences of that choice. this was more noticable pre CURB when I *HAD* to take 2 Brandy and 3 Ahrissa just to stop specials draining mind...

And make the image designers cry and go on a frenzied id'ing revenge kick? no chance 
just kidding, i like the idea, but to be honest it is very very unlikely to ever happen, they've already stated they will never change a characters race and to be honest the coding they would need to implement for this would probably end up as a full revamp of BE and then bork every other skill we have up.

Whats new with that Kao? Ever time they make a change in us we "get borked". Even way back when we had the great and all mighty BE patch with the new clone system and NO DOCUMENTAION!!!! (sorry this still bugs me) But your rightthey will never go for the idea they have said so before and I'm sure will do so again, hummm unless of course the jedi complain enought and want it done

Only once per account / char would be bad.
Maybe once every 3 real life months or something. But nothing "final". That would be kinda bad

Why stop at race? Why not implement sex changes too? LOL
This sounds like it could get out hand!
