Skins

A skin replaces your character's model with a creature's. It is bought once, stays on until you remove it, and stays on when you log out. The shop prices 644 appearances, including humanoids, animals, undead, demons and a gelatinous blob.

A skin is not polymorph. Polymorph replaces your body and its statistics for its duration. A skin changes only your appearance and your size.

Buying one

The Skins Shop is on Mulrok Island. Everything in it is free in the test area, where an appearance can be tried before it is bought.

Prices are in skin tokens. Skin tokens come from loot, dungeons and quests, and the donations shop sells them. Appearances cost 10 to 5000 tokens.

A 20-token appearance in another size costs 2000. A 2000-token appearance in another size costs

Size and scale are not the same thing

Scale is cosmetic. It makes the model larger or smaller between the limits that appearance allows, and changes nothing else.

Size category - small, medium or large - is a rule, and the game enforces it:

  • A large character may hold a two-handed weapon and a shield at once, but only with 20 Strength before any buff or item. Only your Strength without magic counts.
  • A large character may hold a medium weapon in the off hand, at 18 Strength, counted the same way.
  • A large character may not pair a double-sided weapon with a second melee weapon. That combination is refused whichever hand you fill first.
  • Size changes how much a smite adds, measured against the weapon you are holding: see Paladin.
  • Weapon Finesse does nothing for a huge creature holding a quarterstaff, a trident or a dire mace.

Wearing it, and taking it off

Buying does not change you. You are handed a skin item naming the appearance, its size and its scale, and using that item applies the skin:

  • Use it and you take the appearance. Your hands are emptied first, any mount is dismissed, and the item is destroyed.
  • One at a time. A second skin is refused until the first is removed. No skin can be applied while you are polymorphed or inside the appearance editor.
  • Remove it from the Player Menu. Removing it hands the skin item back, with its size and scale. The item can be worn again, stored, or sold on the trade post.
  • A full character re-roll does not proceed until the skin is removed and the item is stored.
