I agree with what a lot of you have said, which is that we need a lot more options with hair/horns/lekku/fur! But I think we would do well to roleplay the profession by keeping in mind the species we are working on. Since I'm a Zabrak gal, I'll speak on that aspect. So for example, in other threads in the ID forum, one person wishes that on Zabraks, the horns and hair were individually moveable. Another person suggested that Zabraks be given longer horns as an option. So what I mean by keeping in line with the species is to remember that each hair/horn combination on a Zabrak (supposedly (?))represents a specific sub-species, so should we really have infinite combinations of hair/horns? And long horns just ain't a Zab-thing! But I could be very wrong; we do only have three individual examples in Canon out of the millions of individuals of the species!

What I really wish is simply that Males and Females be given the same horn/hair choices! From a biological perspective! After all, how is it that there are so many females running around with the frontal horns and high ponytail, but never a man to be found of the same subspecies? Were they killed outright at birth?? LOL I wish we ladies could have the long flowing tresses of the males...yum....Our female hair options have an ugly receding hairline. The hair options on female Zabraks are pretty awful.

This is just a start, I hope some of you can add to this by speaking on what you wish for in your own species. I agree wholeheartedly with whoever said that Wookiees should have braids, knots, beads, feathers! That IS Wookiee through and through! I also really liked someone's wish that Twi'leks can move their lekku from front to back and side to side...whichever way they want. (Incidentally, do they have musclular control over their lekku? I kinda always imagined lekku as lithe and flexible like a snake's tail, especially when using them for communication...anyone know?)

Anyway, who knows, think the Devs would listen to us?

Thanks,

Heh... this is WHY you see so many female Zabraks with that pony tail. As for the hair/horn combinations... my understanding is that the different subspecies is determined solely by the horns. There is no reason why different members of the same subspecies should be required to have their hair is the same style... hence, why I (for one) want the ability to change hair and horns seperately.

I do agree with you that there are many male Zabrak hair styles that would look good on the females.

slightly off trail but whos the third?
