To be really clear, we have no plans to have NFTs in Ashes of Creation, or any other "play-to-earn" mechanics.

Honestly, for things like this, looking at a barbershop poster can give you some fairly generic options, but more than a simple afro.

Edit: There are other options of course! I've had my hair in a variety of styles, and barbershop posters usually contain safe lower cut styles. I am unsure where I would find longer examples has my hair usually ends at the giant afro stage and doesn't evolve from there.

Edit x2: ...

Go learn something. A foreign language maybe.
Do some volunteer work to help people or nature.



This is also a GREAT idea! I study languages as a hobby and back when I could afford it, I took classes and made friends through study partners!

Do you have examples of additional hairstyles you'd like to be able to choose from?

@Shoelid asked about the height of the Ghastly Ghoul cosmetic pet in the livestream Q&A thread. I wanted to answer that here for everyone!

The cosmetic pets are not large. In general, they won't go above average character knee height. This includes this month's cosmetic pet!

I think @AidanKD did a good job of pointing out how Sieges won't happen as often as you may be concerned that they will. Siege scrolls won't be overly easy to come by, and sieges from the very beginning to finish won't happen overnight! That'll give you time to prepare for sieges so you're not blindsided.

When it comes to animal husbandry being an aspect of what is lootable from a freehold... We will have to stay tuned for more information! That might not be a bad question for our monthly Q&A whi... Read more

It's certainly interesting seeing this thread, and others like it come up recently. I think we still have yet to see a large majority of the different gear appearances in the game (whether in-game achievable or cosmetic).

With that said, I think there may be gear sets in the future that please some who are concerned about this! Steven has said he doesn't like the idea of 'bikini armor' but hasn't ruled out form-fitting gear appearances, or more revealing ones ^_^

If you have thoughts on this and you're just happening to see this thread, please feel free to drop your thoughts in a comment!

I just hope that you add more then one African hairstyle, unlike any other game made ever. The Afro looks awesome, but it would be really cool to have different types fades, or some locks. Different texture hair would be kinda cool too, like having some that is relatively curly, one that’s super curly, and one that has super tight curls. Looking into 1a-4c hair texture, will help you understand what I mean.

Just wanna say great job so far on the game can’t wait to play it!

We definitely want to have a range of hairstyles, so people can make the character they want to in Ashes of Creation.

Do you have examples of a few of the hairstyles you have in mind? If so, we'll get those shared with the larger team.
