The abyss. duh.
Okay so, me being the random person as I am. I thought of a cool idea, and that is what if the wiki had a page of showing race skin templets? Of course the player who is making a character doesn't have to follow the templet but for all those skinners out there which are trying to make a new race or is just having a hard time making a skin for their char could use the templet as sorta like a guid line to help.

For example, when the Url came out I had litterly no clue how to do their heads, and make them have a bull appearance. I struggled some making the gosh thing but soon ended up be able to. But the process would've been much easier to actually look at a already done Url skin.

Anyways that is just my random idea for the day, I know it probably won't happen, but I thought it would just be cool if I let the idea out there.

I feel a lot of those animal-like races such as Varran, Maiar, and Thylan (excited), deter a lot of people due to the efforts of creating a decent looking skin-- I wish I was as strong as those people who can throw something together in ten mins and not pay much attention to detail and just.. roleplay. Nonetheless, I like how you put the template idea as optional, and I figure that this would put a lot more people out there on the server willing to play a lot of these not-so-known races within Regalia.

A lovely man named Mac made a bunch of races already, so we're sort of on the way there. Click here for the thread.

As for Url, their heads are pretty difficult to skin. I personally went on planet Minecraft and looked up how those were made, and made my own from there. Search up Minotaur and sift!

A wiki page dedicated to skin making would help a lot of beginners, but it's ultimately up to Lore or Direction to put it up there.
 
I hate to be the naysayer, but I feel like this would spur unoriginality. Chances are, more people would play with minimal edits to the template, and you'd have a bunch of clones running around.

Unless some regulations were put in place, or the templates were black, white and grey rather than colored.

Yeah this is sorta what I MENT. It doesn't have to be colored. Just simple templets which could guide some new skinners or People who are wanting to get a skin to guide them onto what they want or how it is going to look
 
Personally, a Shendar, ahem, I mean Kathar, (I hate that change, and disagree completely, but that's for another day) template, or at least detailed skin creation guide would be beneficial to those players. Perhaps I should begin work on Kathar clan templates.
