What does this suggestion change/add/remove:

An NPC (or something else) that allows ISD Investigator+ to make a deep disguise, the idea is that you can select a custom name, job & rank. Your loadout will also be completely replaced with the jobs loadout you selected and you will get the custom keycard to go along with it, provided by RAISA.

this would not replace the base disguise system, but would be an additional ability that investigator+ can use to watch high risk suspects and use in investigations. I would also like to say that GOC & CI should not get this, since in RP it would be RAISA giving the ISD a custom identity, something both GOIs could not replicate realistically.

No CL4+, A-1, O-1, GOI, Civilian, surface role, or D-Class deep disguise should ever be made or possible to make (unless site command wants an NPC for themselves), on top of this, MTF, DEA, Security SGT, SCU, Cartographer, and ISD deep disguise should only be authorized by Commissioner+ in an investigation which clearly outlines what restricted deep disguise should be made and what duties should be fulfilled. Inspector+ will be able to use Deep Disguise freely with a valid reason; however, investigators may only use it within the parameters of an investigation with clearly outlined authorization.

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:

I don't think so

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):


More RP for ISD

Makes investigations more interesting and thought-out, on top of this, with the current disguise system, if the person you are disguised as leaves, then you just get put back to normal instantly, and your cover is blown. You also wouldn't draw attention from people thinking you're the person you're disguised as.

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:

Although it would locked to investigator+ with HEAVY restrictions I could still imagine that someone would use it to mess around, the punishment for doing that should be a removal/blacklist based on the severity of the actions.

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:


When ISD is disguised, normally it's not a huge issue that you take someone else's identity if you're just roaming around; however, for a high-risk suspect, or an investigation, it's a matter of life or death and site safety that you don't get your cover blown, which can happen through name recognition or the person leaving the server. I think this system would allow great investigation RP and add a new level of mystery to ISD.
 
I remember talking to someone about an idea similar to this, that being the removal of the disguise card, but instead a system closer to this for all the GoI's. They all have a wardrobe they can get a disguise from, instead of just left clicking and stealing someone's disguise with magic.

CI would have constant access to CL1/CL2 disguises, and would have to either take a disguise from a kidnapped individual to add it to the wardrobe, but to get further disguises would have to infiltrate ISD bunks, and for the even higher up ranks, they would have to infiltrate AO bunks.

Anyways ignore my shitty rambling +Support this is a big yippee suggestion.

Would be nice, but could easily be abused and there is a good chance people will abuse this a lot. Maybe there should be a way to check for ISD "deepcovers" without using codewords.
Regarding this, based off the provided restriction (Inspector+ freely, Commisioner auth+ otherwise) instead of needing a check just lock it in the inspectors office (Cl4 door), and boom only the provided people can use it, Commisioner/inspector can grant access as needed based off approvals. (Also makes codewords actually useful for more then just confirming someone)

Huge +1 from me
