When you type your Legion ID, the form shows whose record it is so you can check it.

Note

Only coordinators, an event’s point of contact and admins can see your mobile number and emergency contact. See Why we ask for contact details.

Your costume list

Your costumes come from your 501st Legion record, fetched each time you sign up to troop. Newly approved costumes appear automatically.

If the Legion’s records can’t be reached or yours is private, your saved costumes are used instead. If you have none saved, you’re asked to type them, one per line.

If your costumes are wrong

1. Check the costume is approved on your 501st Legion profile.

2. Check your Legion ID in User CP > Edit Profile.

3. Sign up again, or click Update Your Signup.

Preapproved costumes

If enabled, you can troop in a preapproved costume that isn’t on your Legion record yet.

1. On the costume step, type the costume in the Preapproval: box.

   

2. If instructions are shown, follow them and tick the box to confirm your preapproval.

3. Click Continue.

It’s listed as Preapproval: <costume>. You confirm again each time you use it.
