This may have been suggested before (and, yes, I know it won't happen ), but I think it would be fun if players could create, using the character creation screen, their own hero, picking the class, name, etc.

Or, possibly, allow players to create their own monster hero: imp, troll, etc., choosing the name, class, etc. (but not the appearance, I guess, since there is no character creation for anything other than humans).

A human Hero seems like an easier way to go, though, since the models and animations, etc., are all already in place.

Just a thought here, inspired in part by the introduction of the new fire imp and golem heros.

I wish we would have gotten the chance to make at least a couple of these.

Maybe with the idea of MOX, they should be PvE-only, to prevent having to go up against strange creatures in PvP.

Agree. I mean, sure, I will probably use MOX if my Melonni has level lesser than 20, but other than that, no reason to use him for more than seeing each form and putting him in the closet.

No, you and everyone else that thinks this when posting stupid RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing ideas here should just stop. If you can't take your idea seriously what makes you think that anyone else will?

Agh, seriously do you even use a third of the heroes you already have? You've got something like 25(?) heroes for only 10 professions and ranging from asuran to human to charr in appearance (and golem since yesterday). Each has a variety of armours and weapons to choose from, how much more customisation do you need?

Well, obviously, ANet didn't think there were too many Heroes, since now we have Mox. The problem is, if players had been allowed to pick or make their own "new Hero" I suspect very few would have picked a dervish golem. Allowing players to pick or (better, imo) create the new hero they wanted would have been better.
