= Player Cosmetics =

Personal cosmetics in '''Per Regna''' customize '''your''' commander and colonies. They do not affect combat stats or production.

Open '''Inventory → Cosmetics''' and your '''Profile'''. Relic-backed looks start in '''Inventory → Relics''' — see [[Relics]].

== Avatars (profile) ==

Avatar cosmetics replace your profile picture everywhere the commander appears (profile, lists, social surfaces).

* Forge an '''avatar relic''' to unlock its base look, then buy color variants with Quantum Shards.
* Equip from '''Profile → change avatar'''.
* Avatars are '''personal''' — they are never donated to an alliance.

== Planet images ==

'''Planet Image''' cosmetics change the colony’s sprite in '''galaxy / system view''' (rocky, oceanic, volcanic, hazardous families, and more).

* Open the colony customize UI → '''Planet''' tab.
* Equip a purchased or unlocked image; unequipping restores the seeded default sprite.
* Moons keep their own moon sprites (use moon surface cosmetics for lunar looks).

== Planet & moon surfaces ==

'''Planet Surface''' and '''Moon Surface''' cosmetics change how the colony looks when you are '''on the surface''' (ground view), separate from the galaxy planet image.

* Colony customize → '''Surface''' tab.
* Scope can be '''global''' (all matching colonies) or '''per colony''' depending on the item — use Equip / Equip to Colony in the cosmetics UI.

== Building, ship & defense skins ==

Themed '''building skins''', and when available '''ship''' / '''defense''' skins, change unit art without changing stats.

* Browse '''Inventory → Cosmetics''' and '''Packs''' for themed building bundles (partial ownership only charges missing skins).
* Equip from the cosmetics inventory once owned.
* Realm gates may apply to some packs — the shop shows requirements.

== Titles & UI effects ==

Some cosmetics add '''titles''' or light '''UI effects''' for prestige. Equip them from Cosmetics when owned; they remain cosmetic-only.

== How to apply (checklist) ==

# Unlock via [[Relics|relic forge]], shop purchase, pack, or event grant.
# Open '''Inventory → Cosmetics''' (or Profile / colony customize for the matching type).
# '''Equip''' (or Equip to Colony / globally as offered).
# Confirm the look in Profile, Galaxy, or colony view.
