Suggestion is that for the list of character pictures the player be allowed a custom picture slot. This would let the character feel the slot however they feel.

The initial loading would be from the game directory, or game data directory.

When the game creates the character directory the current custom slot would be saved into the character directory. To be done for whatever picture was selected

This allows that after creating charter ALPHA that ALPHA always has that picture. The player could change the custom_load slot to that character BETA looks different with BETA saved into BETA's file directory.

It would also mean that the player could at any time go into the character directory and change the character picture.

Just noticed in the directories it is already there as 'portrait'

The suggestion would be then during character creation to be able to select an empty or silhoute with the player to replace later.

A note on the picture requirements ### x ### would be useful to be shown on the blank portrait.

Please include per character/save pc-male.png/pc-female.png graphic. That’d make playing with varied character looks more immersive (and less hassle to switch between characters)

Those who don't fancy the game portraits can replace them with their own anytime. Add your favourite portaits to each culture and you can then select them easily during character creation.
