"Zines" are holographic periodicals distributed by various publishing houses across the galaxy. Each one will have a different set of customizations to dispense which you can use for either yourself or your ship. If you already have all the customizations a particular issue of a zine has to offer, subsequent copies will give you the value of those customizations in credits.


A token of friendship
=====================
Should you obtain one of these rare tokens, you have the ability to claim friendship of any NPC in the game. As such, you can specify a custom greeting from the NPC of your choice*. File an ISSUE with the details of your request in order to bring your friendship to life. Your token will be claimed at the time of fulfillment. 

Custom greetings consist of one emote and one spoken line.

*There are a few exceptions to this - main quest characters, battlemasters, and npcs critical to the new player experience will not be modified in this way. Requests must also not be wildly out of character for the NPC in question - no asking the biggest, scariest villain in the game to curtsey at the sight of you and serve you tea. Friendship tokens will not be claimed until request is granted.
