I think that's why I went with the glamour bit on my soon-to-be-renamed Ninja. Â She was RP'd very little, in a small circle, most of whom are no longer active in game, and primarily with my husband's alt, who 'always knew she was x, and just kept quiet about it', during private interactions, he'd make out as if he was jerking on her tail, or commenting on her horns, so it isn't a jarring change. Â And once I knew that I was going to be changing her come Heavenward, I stopped RPing her out in public. Â
I can appreciate people who want to make major changes, and I try to roll with it the best I can. Â Another explanation that I haven't seen people use much is the Echo. Â We've seen with the Ascians that it's entirely possible to use Echo to jump bodies. Â And the Echo isn't just restricted to the Warrior of Light. Â Minfilia has it, and she's not a WoL, as far as I know, and the Ascian's have it. Â And it has potential, as long as people aren't claiming Hydaelyn's blessing at the same time. Â That would more be full WoL potential, and likely seen as a form of god-modding by most of this community.
That also opens up a whole new area of role-play, because suddenly this person is in this new body, and trying to adapt. Â One of the things that maybe irks me most is people who transition to a new body with a drastically different mass and form and are totally comfortable inside that new body. Â There's no period of awkwardly getting used to their new height, or horns/ears/tails (where applicable).
