    If you still have a character redo coin whatever you can check without using it first, taking a screen recording or pictures, and then delete it.

    Are you on PC? If so, your char will eventually end up on PTS. Buy an appearance change token for free on PTS, apply to this character on PTS, then screenshot the sliders/setup. You now know how to recreate on Live.

    If you're OCD like I am, it would drive me crazy seeing the mistake. I would actually buy the 'Race Change' token for 3500 because it comes with a name change token as well. That way, if in the future you wanted to ever change a race on a character, you wouldn't need to buy a race token and it's cheaper in the combination than buying separately.

    This would take a while, but you could wait for the pts to update (so Mirili is on the PTS) and then buy an appearance change token, screenshot the sliders and recreate your character on live.

    Alternatively you could just try to recreate your character on the pts (it's easier bc you can make small adjustments with free appearance changes).

    If it's a new character, take the time to recreate her. If you happen to have a race/appearance change token lying around, you can use it to screenshot the sliders.

    One thing you can do is to but an appearance token for 1000, and just keep that banked.

    You can use it to open up the window, take screenshots, and then back out without saving. I like to keep one banked just in case I need to look over the character again to remake them on PTS or whatever.

    But yeah, best thing to do if you haven't started yet is to just delete and reroll.

    If you have an appearance or race change token, "use it" to see your sliders and take screenshots of where they are, then cancel the process to not use up your race/appearance change token. Then delete the character and make a new one.

    If you are not confident you can recreate it and you do not already have a race/appearance change token, then the name change token is probably your only option.

    Buy a name change token. It would be very difficult to remember exactly where all your sliders were before, and not worth it. Time is money.

    Also do not just let it go. Your name says a lot about you and you want it right.

    If you have a token use it to look at all the sliders. Take screenshots and reroll a new character using the screenshots to compare sliders.

    Always screen cap the sliders when you make the character. :smiley:

    Do you have a free character slot available or an Appearance Change token? Use either of these options to create/edit a new character, look at your slider counts, WRITE down how many spaces for each one, then go remake your character for free. On PC, I have notepad open on the other monitor.

    @hcbigdogdoghc This. I've ran into the same issue and would feel the exact same. Hopefully you already have some sort of character token, when you click on it as @phaneub17_ESO suggested you get to the character customization screen. Once you're done writing down/screenshot all the slider settings (takes maybe 5 mins tops), you can exit out and discard changes so you don't use your token. Once you get your new toon recreated with the proper name, go back to the character select screen so you can compare the "old" and "new" one. If you're not happy with the results, recreate again; if you are, then delete the one that has the improper capitalization. Only cost is a short amount of time this way :D

    First of all, calm down. We often stress about things that seem very important but later rralise they aren't. For example, you may be agonising over it right now, but in one month you may have deleted that character anyway.

    It's always good to have some race change & name change tokens lying around as you may always to see what your character would have looked like as a different race.

    If you don't want to spend more coin, just reroll. Depends on whether you value your time or your money more.

    Actually, you can see your sliders, if you have an Appearance Token, without using it. You can go into the screens and see the sliders, just don't save any changes. You keep the token.

    If you don't have a token, do what I do. Roll a character, hit the Randomizer once, tweak a bit, and play. For some reason, the first random is a pretty good looking character once you add or remove facial markings and change the hair.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    This might work as long as all you need to do is capitalize a letter. I'm on console and didn't capitalize my mains name and had it like that for years. I was in contact with customer service for another matter and asked at the last minute if it was possible for them to capitalize two letters for me. I had to convince them a little that I only wanted those two letters to be capitals, but they did end up giving me a name change token to do it myself.

    Depends, did you notice right after creating them? If so delete if and re roll.

    If you have done a lot on the character before noticing live with the mistake.

    If you must buy a name change token buy crowns with gold.

    So, user hcbigdogdoghc is upset that he messed up the name of one of his chars by not capitalizing the first letter.

    I doubt anyone pays attention to my character names. Especially since my Gamertag in the nameplate is a much larger font.

    Hmm any chance you have a change appearance token? You could open it on the new character, take screenshots of all the settings, then back out without consuming, then remake your new character using the screenshots for reference.
