Where Winds Meet puts you in the shoes of a sword master that must make their way through tenth century China. At the start of the game, you get to choose your appearance and customize your character. However, you might rush through this process just to get into the game. Later on, you might want to change the appearance depending on different unlocks and what you see from other players. If you’re regretting your decision, we got you covered. In this guide, we’ll show you how you can unlock the option to change your character appearance. Let’s dive in!
How to Change Character Appearance
To change your appearance in Where Winds Meet, you need to complete the Still Shore lost chapter quest. However, this lost chapter can only be unlocked as part of An Urgent Word main quest. So, go through the main story until you reach this quest.
From here, we’ll go over all the objectives and steps you need to complete to change your appearance.
Step 1 – Return To Blissful Retreat (An Urgent Word Start)
Once you get An Urgent Word quest, you’ll need to return to the Blissful Retreat. Thankfully, you can do this easily by fast travelling to the teleport landmark.
From here, head to the marker and you’ll find that Aunt Han is not there. Talk to the nearby NPC who will lead you to your next location.
Step 2 – Head To Evercare Clinic
Next, make your way to the Evercare Clinic which you can also fast travel to.
From here, talk to Yaoyao who you typically submit Medicinal Tales to so you can upgrade your healing. Our most powerful item guide goes over them alongside plenty of other mystic skills and weapons.
Talk to Yaoyao and get her to unlock the second floor. Once that’s done, head up there.
You might need to talk to her again for the option to appear. This is because the first time she’ll talk about the medicine chest upgrades.
Step 3 – Explore Second Floor
After you go up to the second floor, you’ll find that Aunt Han is not there either. From here, you need to explore the room and interact with all the items. You can also loot all the chests up there.
Eventually, you will need to look over the terrace where you’ll find a covered well.
To uncover the well, you will need to aim at the vines using your bow. The fire arrows will burn them away, allowing you to jump down.
Step 4 – Complete Still Shore Quest
After you jump down the well, you will unlock the Still Shore side quest. From here, continue exploring the hidden passage and proceed with the quest.
Eventually, you will be able to talk to Cheng Xin outside the heavy gate. Interact with him and you’ll see the Disguise option. Select it and you will open the character customization menu.
Here, you can change everything about the appearance including your character’s features, makeup and hairstyles. Each change will cost some in game currency so keep that in mind.
And anytime you want to change your appearance in the future, you just need to revisit the same NPC. You can also do this via the Appearance option in the main menu.
Wrap Up
That’s everything you need to know about changing your appearance in Where Winds Meet. Once you unlock it, you just need to revisit the location or go to the main menu and you’ll be able to change it any time. The changes will cost some money but it is not much and you can easily farm the money needed. You might not be able to change your gender, however, which is a real bummer. However, the other changes will certainly help out.
