New backgrounds for the Character Inspection

So I was thinking about this idea where you could put a background to your character inspection. What I mean is you can buy a background for your player card. So people that inspect you will see the background you have. So maybe like when your vanaguard you can purchase a background where you are putting a step on the edge of the mountain.

The backgrounds are only decorations. If you don't know what the player card is, its the horse icon on your top right. Its where people inspect you. The backgrounds should cost like maybe 3000 crowns or up and you must be at a certain rank to unlock a certain background. Maybe not too much backgrounds but just a few.

Where can you find them? You can either find them at your arsenal in the new category "Backgrounds" or in "character options", where it'll open your arsenal and go to the background section.

Who'll be selling it? Sullvian will be selling some, the AH will have them, the token trader will sell them and Basil will!

I'll list them here.

Normal background - Already have the background from the start
Jelly King background - Can be obtained after defeating Jelly King (Will be available to buy in Haven)
Snarbolax background - Can be obtained after defeating Snarbolax (Will be available to buy in Haven)
RT background - Can be obtained after defeating the Roarmulus twins (Will be available to buy in Haven)
Vanaduke background - Can be obtained after defeating Vanaduke (Will be available to buy in Haven)
Gremlin background - Can ba obtained anywhere in Haven / Basil
Haven background -Can be obtained anywhere in Haven / Basil
Lockdown background - Can be brought from Sullvian
Blast Network background - Can be brought from Sullvian
Shadow Lair Unknown Passage background - Can be obtained after doing a shadow lair successfully.
The core background - Can be obtained after visiting the core
Promotional background - Some promotions may have special, limited time backgrounds that can ONLY be bought during that promotion

If you like this idea, post them in the comments below and if you don't, please NO RAGING and please try saying it in the nicest way as possible.

Seems legit.

But,

i think in order to be a possible crown sink, they should be more expensive...

Calling it a player card is confusing..

I don't remember that ever being mentioned anywhere in the game, you should use either a word that makes more sense or a word used in the game.

That said, sounds chill, more crown sinks are welcome (though I can't imagine too many people flipping for this). This isn't very relevant, but since this has to do with the UI... it'd be cool if we could change our color scheme. Also it would be nice if knights kept rotating/were able to attack while going over UI panels. I've scrolled over the counter in LD while gunning so many times...

@Tohru Should it be 1000

@Tohru
Should it be 1000 crowns?

@Addisond
Do you know the horse icon on your top right? It's between the lockdown and loadout button. It's like a button to view your knight.

Good idea, should be more expensive and could function similar to the load out thing so if you have a Hallow set there is also a Hallow background with falling leaves in a dark forest.

Maybe make the backgrounds 'one use'. If someone wants to change backgrounds, the previous background won't be saved.

Maybe make it so everyone could obtain the backgrounds from Brinks with tokens:
boss tokens = boss background
krogmo tokens = pvp background
forge tokens = gremlin/construct backgrounds
grim tokens = undead/fiend backgrounds
primal tokens = beast/jelly backgrounds

@Qwote

Also Lockboxes, so we could trade them. And have special ones for promos and stuff.

I agree with @Qwote, tokens for some of the backgrounds. I don't think that backgrounds should be obtainable through Forge, Grim, and Primal tokens though. Unless you make it cost a lot of tokens! The boss ones should be about 80 - 100 tokens to get them as they should be really cool looking therefore hard to get.

@Klipik I guess backgrounds of different themes (for example the grave yards theme) would be good for Lockboxes.

Why must do I think that many of them should be hard to get? Well, if every single knight you came across was using one of the cool backgrounds. Then it just wouldn't be as valuable any more. If every knight has the same cool background then no knight has a cool background.
