Can we get a skin that changes you to default appearance?

I have griped over this issue for a long time, but I have finally had enough! I spend a lot of time creating my characters and I want them to appear how I designed them. I HATE how vampire turns your character into a pale ghost and all your work in the character creation screen gets overwritten. Wanted an Argonian with black scales and green eyes? Lol you get white scales and red eyes. I am tired of it! Vampire is way too good of a skill line to not take on lots of builds, but as a down side you lose the characters design. Could you even imagine playing a magblade bomber build without vampire? Maybe this is something that should be addressed in another way, but I would settle for a payed skin at this point.

So please release a "skin" that just turns your character back into their original appearance. Call in "pure" or "uncorrupted" or something, idc I just want this. You could even make a skin that gives you a vampire appearance for people that actually like that, but don't want vampire fire weakness. I warn you though, don't place a high price on such a skin or the community will get mad that you are making us pay 20$ for default appearance. Yes I know I can wear a disguise to remove the vampire appearance, but then I don't get to have my armor customization. I have tried other skins to hide it, but most of them remove body paint from your character or are equally ugly.

This has literally been asked for since Day One of the game. They have never listened. They have never given a logical answer for why they won't do it. If they sold it in the crown store it'd be a huge money maker for them. There's literally no reason for them NOT to do it. But they won't. It defies reason.

People use the whole "It's a curse, so it's got to look like one" as an argument all the time, so be warned — you might get mostly that despite that the vampirism line has enough downsides to throw that one out the window with the bathwater.

They can use that argument if they want, but its VERY easy to refute. You can use any skin to cover up vampirism or wear a disguise. If vampires have to look cursed, then no skin or disguise should cover it up. Since we already can cover it up I see no reason why a default appearance skin can't exist. Plenty of vampires in ES lore that were indistinguishable from ordinary people, like Seridur. He was so normal looking that even a group of vampire hunters couldn't tell that their leader was a vampire.

I really think the reason they won't do it is because they think they will get backlash for selling something that we already own. As happy as this skin would make many of us, we will get the complainers that will criticize anything they don't want. I am telling you zos, you don't even have to work hard to make this skin and to appease both crowds you can just make it 5$ or something. Hell you don't even have to sell it, you could just be nice and give every player that skin in their collection tab.

Use the Arctic time skin for a pale-but-not-disgusting look. No veins, no meth-eyes, just a frosty sparkle pattern when you look close.

You actually look kinda frostbitten and unhealthy. It's not a good compromise but it's probably the best thing out there at the present time.

Does it remove body paint though? Thinking about it more, a default skin would probably also removed body paints anyways. Just no winning when you get forced into being a vampire. Not literally forced I guess, but its pretty damn good for a mag blade.

The deadlands excoriated (not sure if that's the name) looks normal in the face ... except for the stripped/burned forehead. And of course you'd have to cover your body.

If you can get some big bangs or a hat it might work.
