Some of your post seem like you will accept that changing gear based on that one wo wears it ...
Oh gods i hope this will not be the case. :-/
There is nothing stupider than Full plate armour become Furry loincloth when you steal it from knight, and equip it with your barbarian. -_-
I completely agree with that point of upractical dresses tho ...
But that can be even inplemented ... i can imagine that there should be some pretty dresses, that are (and are ment to be) purely unpractical, so they cause disadvantage for both attack, and defending rolls, and reduce movement speed by half. :P
Also equipment tab in character creation where you can tint your armor, choose starting weapon TYPE, etc ... that would be awesome. :3
After all, our characters had some life before right? :P And they were abducked right from it.
Also ... i would love to see some mirror in the camp to tint any armor i found, and maybe even edit my character.
For example if i found out that haircut i used isnt quite as nice as i thought.
That could be done by simply returning to character creation window, exclude some obvious parts.
I still dont understand why cant we change Race for our hirelings.

Lets us play Githyanki as racist as they trully are!
