New Clan Idea

Let Aurors hide their identity similar to Death Eaters (not my idea)...

My idea is related to this: is letting them pick a single pseudonym when they join a clan. When they go in robe they can display that pseudonym in place of their real name over the character icon's head. Example: say I am an Auror and don't feel like always displaying my name. I choose an "undercover" name, in this case let's say it is Dirk Kennedy, when I participate in clan activities I would keep my "hood"(?) up, thus displaying my secret undercover name. I could choose to leave it "down" and have my real name displayed, however. I think this would add some really cool possibilities to clans. (This could also apply for Death Eaters, or could be used as an alternative new/cool thing for Aurors if you need to balance a new thing the DE get.)

[edit] To clarify, I do not see this being used by the aurors on a regular basis. It has been pointed out that flavor wise, Aurors were government workers and public figures, so it should be rare that they would try to go undercover. They aren't the DE, who have to hide their faces just to survive. I see this as being more of a occasional thing, maybe for a small strike squad to carry out a raid, or for intelligence, to protect the Aurors real name and shield them from being targeted afterwards for revenge. (Personally, I would spend probably 99% of the time with my real name revealed, if I was an Auror.) Ex. Cloaked spying. Currently, there are many ways to get the name of a cloaked person, this would help prevent the other clan from specifically identifying the spy.

+1, but I don't think there should be undercover names. Just a way to make only "Auror" be displayed.
