Unlike RPGs, players in Elite Dangerous do not choose their [[Roles|role]] by
The player can customize his or her character's physical characteristics with [[Holo-Me]]. It allows deep character customization which can be done at any time. For example, players can change their suit, head and facial features, gender and other cosmetics. The [[Camera suite|Camera Suite]] is a fully functional third-person camera suite. It lets players take sophisticated screenshots, make cinematic videos and fly ships in third person.
The choice and customisation of a player's ship gears it towards specific role(s). Some examples are [[Roles#Trader|Trader]], [[Miner]], [[Roles#Explorer|Explorer]], [[Roles#Bounty Hunter|Bounty Hunter]], [[Smuggler]], [[Courier]], [[Mercenary]], [[Assassin]] and [[Roles#Pirate|Pirate]]. Hybrid roles are possible through emergent gameplay. For example defensive bounty hunting while trading in a multipurpose vessel, or taking long-range trade missions and exploring systems along the way.
In order to allow each player to explore each role they are able to own multiple ships. Every ship can be customised to fill a certain role. Unused ships are stored in station hangars and can be retrieved by returning to that station at any time. It can also be delivered to a station near your location, as long as it has a shipyard.
