Wouldnt it be wonderful to have an Image Design Mission Terminal?

You would be sent to a select location to ID someone for X credits for a larger gain of XP.

Example:

Politician's Ball:

Vermik Vondeeger, Mayor of Tyrena, Corellia (okay I made it up), is hosting a grand ball. All of his staff needs new haircuts, and various other imaging alterations.

1275credits

150XP perCOMPLETED staff alteration. 75 XP per partial alteration.

When you get to the wp (at a camp outside the city or in one of the structures inside the city,either of which would act as a salon including timer restrictions), there will be anywhere from 5-10 staff members needing various alterations. Give each of them new hair cuts and whatever alterations they request. Of course they would have to request simple things such as hair color change, eye color change, cosmetic changes, ect so that the missions wouldnt have to be too skill specific.

With the completion of a tree, higher level missions would be available.

Missions would have to be based on these skills:

Nov Ent> 1-3k payout/150 xp per COMPLETED alteration/75 xp per PARTIAL alteration

Nov ID> 3-6k payout/300 xp per COMPLETED alteration/150 xp per PARTIAL alteration

this would allow some sort of income/xp gains for the leveling ID who just cant seem to find anyone to ID on but themselves, and allow for similar xp gains they would get by practicing on themselves, but allowing them to level in a manner that would not tie them down to a salon all day long, and a way to make money while they are leveling. However, it would render the missions basically useless other than for RP factors for higher skilled ID. This would also take less randomization of the mission spacifics, as if you did not have the skill to complete all of the requests, you would still get partial xp credit for the work you did do. IE: Bonna Novae, a Zabrak,needs a hair cut, color, green eyes, red lipstick, and a new tatoo, but you are only Ent ID II. Since you would obviously only be able to complete part of her requests, you would only receive half of the xp. However, a tatoo artist would be able to complete all of her requests and and get full xp credit.

Take into consideration also that each mission would have 5-10 customers that needed to be satisfied acting as the "lair" of the mission. In order for the ID to get paid, they would need to alter all customers images to the best of their abilities. This would deter from the "money" aspect of it. Spending 2 min on each customer (some may even ask for a stat migration taking 4m) for as many as 10 customers, that would be a max $/XP gain of 6k credits/3k xp in a minimum of 20 minutes. Anyone who has even attempted ID will know that the chances of getting requests for a SM every 4m w/customers who usually tip 10k is worth more than that. However, this would solve the problem of ID's who cannot work on themselves until eye color, ID's who are online during off hours, ID's who just have absolutely no luck finding customers, ID's who do not have friends or alt's to vicitmize, and ID's who just want to do a bit of RP within the galaxy.

It would not deter too much from the salon life as it is, but rather just add an element to ID that would be kind of neat and a way to make money during "slow times".

I must say, I would use this even as a M.ID between clients. As many ppl hoot and holler about there never being an ID online, I rarely get customers.
