I have read some of the stuff regarding the legacy system ie family name,
does anybody know if this is mandatory?

As I didn't particulary wish to link all my toons together.

Cheers

My expectation is that it will be forced, as there is talk about 'Legacy Levels' and significant rewards being developed for Legacy Levels within post-launch content.

I would think that if they're going to put significant effort into Legacy content, they wouldn't want it being ignored. Just my opinion though!

looks like i may need to put some thought into it then,
maybe go along the route of more akin to a House name
where the toons are members of a Imperial House rather than blood relatives.

So for instance the Inquisitor could have been a house slave.

Just thinking out loud.

I think most of us will need to rethink our character names now hehe :)

Also;
Hello everyone, we've updated James' original post to add some clarification - your Legacy Last Name will affect all characters on a server, not across all servers. The line now says:

"Once your character has completed their Chapter 1 storyline, they will be able to choose a Legacy Last Name. This Legacy Last Name must be unique and is shared across all characters on that server - so choose carefully!"

Sorry for any confusion!
You can choose to do one of the following:
- Display your legacy name as your last name ("Raiel Firewalker")
- Display your legacy name below your name

Raiel
The Firewalker Legacy

- or choose to hide it altogether. This choice can differ per character.
"My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
