Feature Request: Character Selection Screen Order Editing

I would really like to be able to change the order of my characters on the character selection screen.

For example, I have my main first, a few mules, and then my new alt, then another mule. I would like to be able to put my two main toons up top and mules below and also be able to change the order freely when I make new toons or mules.

Am I the only one that would like this feature? This might be the case due to my OCD, but I don't think I am alone on this feature request.

    You're definitely not alone. This feature has been asked for many times.

    Yep. Once I finally got my builds perfected, my two Main characters are now sitting at the number 3 & 4 spots on my character selection screen, but I don't want to delete the crafting mules that occupy the first two selection spots. Those two characters are holding onto a wealth of crafting mats and upgrade tempers.

    I would love to be able to re-order then to the top of the selection list. That would be a small, yet welcome, QoL change.

    This has been requested since beta, I'm sure. There has to be a technical reason they haven't done it yet, that supersedes the ease of use it would create.

    Not alone, and this has been asked since a long time.

    The Devs said somewhere that they do plan on adding this eventually, but is not on their priority so there is no ETA.

    So in other words it will never happen?

    I'd like this as well.

    For me even putting them in alphabetical order would be better than what we have now. Having them in the order they're created just seems random.

    But allowing us to specify a custom order would be the best by far. That way I could have the characters I actually use at the top and in what I think of as order of priority, then my crafter, then my mules. At the moment they're all over the place.

    As a beta tester, I can confirm this.
    Living vicariously through my characters.

    My Girls:
    "If you were trapped in your house for, say, a year, how would you pass the time?"

    Nephikah the Houseless, dunmer assassin: "I suppose I could use the break. I have a lot of business holdings now that need management."
    Swum-Many-Waters, elderly argonian healer: "I think that I would enjoy writing a memoir."
    Silh'ki, khajiit warrior-chef: "Would this one be able to go outside, to the nearby river? It's hard to fish without water!"
    Peregrine Huntress, bosmer hunter: "Who is forcing me to stay inside, and where can I find them?"
    Lorenyawe, altmer mechanist: "And why would I want to go outside in the first place? Too much to be done in the workshop."
    Lorelai Magpie, breton master thief: "I'd go nuts. Lucky for me, I have a little experience sneaking out!"
    Rasheda the Burning Heart, redguard knight: "I would continue my training to keep my skills sharp."
    Hex-Eye Azabi, khajiit daedric priestess: "I suppose it would be lucky, then, that I built a shrine to Mephala in my backyard."
    Yngva Stormhammer, nord bandit (reformed...ish): "I hate being inside even when I'm not forced to be. GET. ME. OUT."
    Madam Argentia, vampire dunmer aristocrat: "I suppose it would be more of the same. I have a rather... contentious relationship with the sun."
    Mazie gra-Bolga, orc scout: "Uh... I'd have to house train my bear..."
    Felicia the Wanderer, imperial witch-for-hire: "What Lorelai said."
    Calico Jaka-dra, retired khajiit pirate: "This one would like a rest from her grand adventures. Her jewel shop runs out of stock!"
    Shimmerbeam, blind altmer psijic: "Provided that I am confined to Artaeum, I do not think I will want for things to occupy my time."
    Shauna Blackfire, redguard necromancer: "Sounds like paradise. I hate people."
    Kirniel the Undying, cursed bosmer warrior: "I would feel useless, not being able to fight."
    Echoes-from-Dragons, argonian who thinks she's a dragon: "All the better to count my hoard!"

    Well, maybe it will come in the same update as Spellcrafting, the Warden class and the one that will fix PvP for good!

    So there is still hope!

    Yeah, at one point i deleted some characters to get them to be in right order but that went bad soon because could not keep the order with new alts being made.

    At one time, i even asked support if they could rearrange my characters according to my wishes.

    This is definitely required, other thing is character appearance saving, when rerolling, i would like to use existing character appearance so a saved appearance would be great.

    Same. I rerolled my first character last year. I'd like to put my lunar priestess back in the top spot, where she belongs.
