Arrgghhh... just because it's a fantasy MMO doesn't mean you should be able to do anything and explain it away with "magic." I think when creating a character, people should have the "pressure" of knowing whatever they're making is final. If they don't care about how their char looks, they can skip this and randomize, but those of us who care should spend enough time creating a character that is "perfect."
Our characters should be unique and recognizable. If you run into a familiar face, you should be able to recognize it even from a distance as you would in real life. I think that's very nice to have in a game that is social, and allowing anyone to change their looks at any time would ruin this.
Some things though, I think would be nice to have... like maybe temporarily changing a hair-do. I don't think this is major since I am not gonna play Aion because I miss Barbies, but it might be a cool feature to have, and being that with Aion's customization your hair is only one of many features that make you unique, changing a hairstyle wouldn't make you into a different person. With Aion's current hairstyle options though (at least from the last time I saw them), I would never even use this feature. I'm pretty disappointed with their options =/
