"Recently, Star Wars: The Old Republic blog Inquisitor's Roadhouse got in touch with BioWare Lead System Designer Damion Schubert to talk about the game's "other" companions: vanity pets. While they may not be the fifth pillar of gameplay, vanity pets in SWTOR are desired by many collectors -- and Schubert has word that more are on the way."
Taun-Tauns are on their way! I was never a big fan of vanity pets because they really serve zero person on the "I want to melt your face" front. But with this game focusing on a little thing called Star Wars....I may be game.
