Transferring Avatars between accounts...
lazyrussian
So here's the quick backstory. My little brother and I used to share an account. I, being the more mature and less selfish of thw two, gave up my progress to start a new, and gave him full access to my account. In turn, I bought myself a new one. (This happened 5 months ago).
Since I technically own both account (I paid for them with the same credit card, etc...) is it possible for me to transfer my old character (only 1 that I have in mind) from my old account (the one that belongs to my brother now), to my new account?

I'm pretty sure there is not a chance in hell of anet doing that.

Nope, afriad not. The characters and names are locked to the account.
What you could do is transfer all of that characters items over to your new account and delete the old character. The name is locked for a set period (1 or 2 Weeks I think, but im not sure exactly how long). After that period is over you can recreate the character with the same name.
If you dont feel like waiting ages, just make a new character which is similar to the old one adn give him the items off of the old one.

No, like Dono said "no chance in hell of it happening".
Ghostcell
yeah sorry buddy not a chance in hell.
a friend of mine has his account and his dad started to play on his account, and his dad got to lvl 20, went through all the games. then he got his own account and had to start all over.
but yeah just transfer all the gear over to the proper account and start the character over.

Keep in mind that you can't use your armor on a new character, even if it has the same name as the character on the old account nor can the new character use any customized weapons from the old character.

Yea, I only meant regular items which belong that character. Sorry, I didnt express myself too clearly there
.
Obviously Customized weapons, Armor (you can slavage the runes and insigs at least) and achievements are completely lost going through my method. You will have to start form scratch im afraid.

So some of you understood what i wanted, and some of you didn't.
I simply wanted to transfer my Level 20 Assassin with my PvE titles and customised armor/weapons. I figured this would be hard to do because the information is attached to the account, and to 'deprogram' the pvp titles and all else off of this account and move it to another account, seems like to much work.
Oh well - thanks for the answers.

It wouldn't be much work actually.
Anet just won't do it. Rules are rules, same for everyone. No exceptions.
