Applying the Hermetic skin to an unowned character makes you unable to change them back in the character screen

The essential skin isn't counted as "owned", meaning that accidentally applying the Hermetic skin on them makes them stuck as that skin unless you buy the character to change it back. As the skin can't be unravelled, there is no way to forcibly remove the skin either.

r/dontstarve - Accidenally put the Hermetic skin on Wortox. He is now stuck this way because I don't own him and therefore don't have his base skin.image.png.f70d682cc96cef07ca7b09708df6717f.png


Steps to Reproduce

Choose a character that is unowned. In this case, Wortox. Apply the Hermetic skin and press 'Accept Outfit'. The character will appear asleep as with all unowned characters; attempting to select the 'essential' skin will not revert the character back to their default appearance, as it is not considered owned.

This isnt actually just an issue with just the hermetic skin, but any head skin for unowned characters (see: Wortox in my screenshot)

 

You can de-select the skin by opening the clothing presets menu and selecting a blank preset, but obviously its not ideal.
