I wanted to suggest renaming some ABS trinkets, specifically the gator bracer, ornate tattoo and opal choker to something more ABS appropriate. I like the silver ring and torcs, but best in class wrist is suddenly Crocodile Dundee, and the second best necklace is very feminine.
Maybe keep opal as a female retool, but I would love if these items were more appropriate for 99% or the users.
Not sure if the neck tattoo is even still around, but if it is please don't make something that is top end gear so RP specific, we can't take off tattoos and surprisingly not everyone wants to RP having neck tattoos. That said I like the Red Eagle ones

While I agree wholeheartedly regarding tattoos. Chokers are and have been worn by native Americans both ceremonially and otherwise for centuries. I'm certain this applies to other indigenous cultures around the world as well. Off hand I can recall seeing Zulu warriors wearing them as well as Indian men (from south central Asia).

That's not to say we couldn't rename Opal chokers to something akin to "a steel gorget" to keep the abs heavy metal theme though.

Well, I think traditionally Opal chokers loaded on kreeza (the trolloc warrior maiden) which may also give some historical basis for why they are what they are. I'm sure there were other loads 10+ years ago but that one immediately comes to mind.
