    Will POT owners be able to place pets in the POT that will run around, rather than just be tied to the lot?

    Updated OP with the new Male Shopkeepers!

    Male Shopkeepers: These player vendor outfits are based on Victorian shopkeeper wear and early concept sketches Denis Loubet made. They come in several outfit colors and face options. In Release 52 we will get female shopkeepers as well based on similar concepts.

    My favorite is the Bruce Willis clone - I'm going with him! (if you don't buy something, he'll kick your butt!)

    I was looking at stuff on Sketchfab, and I saw the female versions of the current vendor there. Very cool. This will be the single biggest visual improvement to the game since I started playing in September.

    Since we are on the topic of some vendor modifications/changes or ideas in general.

    Any chance of making a set of vendor clothing patterns that can be crafted or store bought, for our vendors to reflect each of the 16 crafting professions or at least the 3 main categories of crafting?

    Might be nice for those who have small shops focused on 2-3 crafting skills such as Mining, Smelting, Blacksmith or Forestry, Milling, Carpentry, ... that guy with the fur coat outside the tropical island paradise down in Dragonmir He is looking a bit dated and overdressed, and scary! Like he may have just stolen     a ham sandwich and some chips off the last customer while they were perusing the shopping list thru his mega hot jacket! I think the guy's name is Hot Pockets!

    Gathering profession: Field Dressing (Trapper) Fishing (Fisherman) Foraging ( Walmart Shopper) Forestry (Lumberjack) Mining (Miner).

    Refining: Agriculture (Farmer), Butchery (Butcher) Milling (Millwright ) Smelting (Iron Ore Worker) Tanning (Tanner) Textiles (Seamster or Seamstress).

    Production: Alchemy (Chemist) Blacksmithing (Blacksmith) Carpentry (Carpenter) Cooking (Chef) Tailoring (Tailor).

    That would be interesting, esp. around Halloween. I think this is the closest we have currently when we pull up the guy to move around - gives him a nice black tux too:

    @DarkStarr (or anyone else that can speak knowledgeably), can these new skins be used on POT NPCs?

    I understand... The POT NPCs are a different... class of NPC...

    But how about Practice Dummies? I believe they're 'Pet' class NPCs like the Vendors and Servants...

    Could Practice Dummies be skinned? :) The possibilities are Endless...
    • Obsidian Cabalist Practice Dummy Skin...
    • Lord British Practice Dummy Skin...
    • Dark Starr Practice Dummy Skin...
    • Berek Practice Dummy Skin...
    • ATOS Practice Dummy Skin!
    :)
