I only just stumbled upon this game earlier today, but I've already fallen in love with it. I happened to see it on the Sonic CD page on Steam, and immediately pounced on the Tails-Tails item, as well (although that, I haven't actually equipped yet).

Thing is, I kind of rushed into creating my character, and since the name "Terin" was taken (which is typically what I use is just about every video-game I play), I just went with something a bit random. So I'm just wondering, if I were to delete this character and create a new one, would he automatically have the Metal Sonic and Tails items, as well?

Or better yet, is there a way to just change your character's Name, as well as Personal Color?

Thanks! :)

No, if you delete your

No, if you delete your character you'll lose any items you have. Changing your name is also generally not supported, but you might be able to convince one of the GMs to help you out if you file a GM support ticket.

Personal colours can be changed in game, by buying a personal colour change item from Vatel in the bazaar.

Hmm, good to know. How expensive are colors in this game? I'm still quite new, so not sure a lot of stuff about the game yet :P

Color changes cost 50.000

Color changes cost 50.000 crowns, so it's pretty expensive if you're just starting out.

For name, you can always unbind everything and mail it all to a knight in one of your other 2 slots; you'll only lose tier access, unlocked recipies, and your friend list. Mind you, that's insanely expensive at high tiers and not worth it at low ones. Since you're new, it's better to just mail all your crowns and mats to the new guy and eat the loss of your gear. The cost of your gear will be insignificant in the long run compared to the satisfaction your name gives you.

As for colour, we've touched on that. You can buy them in the Bazaar from Vatel.

Another thing to keep in mind is that there's no way to change your proto armour after account creation either so make sure you like it, even if you'll never use it after you're done with it.

Note that if you have bound costume items you will not be able to unbind them.
