I'd like to first thank the dev team for introducing a event based currency that they had by all means plans of introducing 3 months past launch and their continued improvements towards its features and events, but something that i find rather lackluster about it is just the various services you can use it for.
So I'd like to suggest a Witch Doctor themed vendor that are the brothers and sisters of the Order of souls representatives who lives on the upper floor from their tents that sells various Tonics that permanently alters the look of your character for doubloons, such as adding more/remove basic scars on your pirate by specific regions of their bodies, dyes with a range of generic and unusual colors for your hair and beards (because there is always someone among us out there who wished they could have a pink beard), and a Tonic that allows the pirate to create a new pirate without loosing any items or progression, replacing their old one with the new (Adding more uses for the IPG).
In addition the Witch Doctor can also offer a wide range of face paints that pirates can wear as their ways to ward off curses, look intimidating or trying to blend into a crowd of imaginary tribesmen for gold, as these face paints would have their own slot in the Vanity chest.
The New You:
Using the Tonic that lets you reset lets you unlike the first time use of the IPG generates sets of pirates wearing the exact same items that your initial pirate is currently wearing, meaning that if your pirate has a long beard and admirals dress equipped, all newly generated pirates regardless of gender will have beards and admiral dresses equipped, allowing players to get a more accurate new look with the help of the cosmetics they fully want to use on their pirate (as the newer tattoos are obtained from shops rather then being free like the other ones that you get from the first use of the IPG for example), you have of course the option to cancel this "Transmutation" by just pressing escape or whichever button is used for exiting dialogues one gamepad as their initial pirate is not removed/replaced yet until they fully have accepted a new pirate.
Additionally I'd like to suggest to add more features to the IPG such as allowing players to use the emotion wheel while highlighting a pirate they generated, so that they can check how they interact with different animations beside the items they are generated with.
Inspirations:
The reason behind this suggestion was that after a point of time in any game with character creation people will grow tired of their characters and sometime would like to create a new one, but due to that most things especially cosmetics obtained trough events in SoT is bound to character rather then on account makes it difficult to justify it, most RPGs in general offers various services players can use for a fee such as race change (which allows you to customize the character as if it was brand new), faction change, migrating to another server and so fourth.
Conclusion:
Adding a range of services in-game that permanently alters the look of your character would be great to have and have a way to add more attention to detail were you want it to be and have the options to revert it if it displeases you, Dyes would be a practical way to revert changes some of the recent bugs might have made to your character made to their hair color for example, and the "New You" Tonic allows players to do that all in one go while having the option to change their characters body type or gender and inspect what that new character would look like with the new items the player owns and adds more ways players can use their doubloons for as they max out their value from every passing event, as eventually they would rack up enough to cause another currency inflation just out of having too many doubloons to spend it on anything else.
