I don't understand why people care so much about this. It does not affect gameplay and only denotes the primary bloodline with which your character is associated and by extension the empire with which the bloodline is traditionally associated.

This does not affect ones sense of loyalty nor impose any restrictions of any sort on any player. If players care so much about this for the purposes of the RP/IP why do they not write this into their character biographies.

E.G-

True Adamance is True Amarr Bloodline of the Amarr Empire Faction. This only denotes the fact that this true ethnicity, or the ethnicity he associates himself with, the Udorians, is not selectable and is more or less bred into the True Amarr Bloodline.

Galm Fae, his ethnicity is Civre, however his character is a halfbreed Civre-Intaki though this is not denoted anywhere on his character bio.

Hell any player with a Gallentean Bloodline and avatar could suggest that they are immigrants to the X Empire of Y Factions but have not received citizenship yet, etc, etc, etc.

There is not call or reason for bloodline or race reallocations because of player negligence.

Look, you're into your phallus worshiping altar boys and you have a nice avy to reflect that...however there are others out there who are equally as zealous for their race of choice but only came to realise which race that was months or years after character creation. The ability for such people to have that race as their official one is something that doesn't effect you in the slightest.

This "role play your way around it" is BS and no amount of fanciful imaginations changed the fact that I have an ugly as caldari av in the forums and on my start screen. I've wanted to change my race for years and fully support the idea.

Why does it matter? Why? I fully support True here (never thought I'd say that) You should not be able to change your race, why? Lore, it also distracts devs from the larger more important tasks.
The lore has been a factor in everything if I'm told correctly and adding this would be like saying "F*ck the lore" why? because you want to change your race? I wanted to change my race a while ago and I did, I'm now Caldari with a new name. Just create a new character! The RP your way around it idea is great considering that should be the only reason you'd want to change race. I was a Gallente when I first started working for the Caldari, I was forced to start over losing around 4 billion ISK, 105m Sp and 250k LP and I was happy! I was happy I got to be the race I wanted to be without screaming for a lore defying option...

Also I take great offense to the Ugly Caldari part... You think 4-eyed freaks are better? Just make a new character with a similar name to the original.
CCP, unless you add this into the lore I doubt it will be a good option to add in, maybe a change Avatar/MQ freely option? Just don't allow these fools to change their race!

If only character creators were available for Dust...... you'd all see how odd Amarrian character models are and want to instantly change whining about how you were uninformed, etc, etc and cry for a race respec.

Seriously HTFU. True Adamance is not my first character, he isn't my secnd, third, fourth, or even fifth. Moreover you suggest that "Rping around the issue is bullshit" and not a solution....yet at the same time you think that having a digital avatar that indicates nothing more that the primary bloodline your character is associated with makes you a loyalist and is the solution?

As for Bio? Of course you can, it's simply a matter of writing one. No actually you can't write a bio because there's no place for you to write it dip stick and "on the forums" doesn't count so do try that bullshit. See when I say bio I'm talking about the one that shows up in you "show info" window. But I'm sure you don't know what that is.
