Icon + RL Name?

    So I realize this isn't a technical issue and more of a vanity one, but anyway-- after signing in for the first time it asks you to create your account name, so I did. I didnt really bother to look around the screen, but I ended up with a blunt man-face Terrain icon next to my name. Is there a way I can change this or is it a default image?

    Second, I realize this is due to my Battle.net information- that instead of the alias I created above, my RL name is plastered in a few places... I'd really rather not have other people acknowledge who I am (not that it really matters to some, but it's that extra touch of privacy that many of us enjoy). Can anyone see this if in Online Multiplayer mode?

    Any help with these two issues would be most appreciated <3

    The Terrans face is only the "default" one. With more achievements your able to unlock additional portraits which you can add to your profile when your logged in to the game (under rewards/portaits).

    Secondly: Your name will by default not be displayed to other gamers. BUT there is the real-life friend "feature" due to which you can add friends with their Blizzard-Battle.net-E-Mail-Adress. They will then be able to see your real name. Since this is only for real-life friends, you shouldn't ever give away your Battle.Net-Email to anyone you don't know personally. However, if you add friends by rightclicking on someones profile and choose the "add friend"-Button, they will NOT be able to see your real-life-name, only your alias!
