I've been calling it a tunic all week, oops.
In Final Fantasy XI (YES THIS AGAIN) there are special pieces of gear you can only purchase from the nations. You spend your 'Conquest Points,' which you earn by doing things for the nation you're allied - fighting monsters with Signet on, supplies quests, missions...
The higher your rank, the more stuff you can buy. If your nation is in first place, you can buy extra special stuff.
At rank 10, you can buy an aketon that matches your nation's emblem.
I have been rank 10 for quite a while. San d'Oria, however, is very rarely in first place anymore, and I never manged to save up enough 56k CP when we were until TODAY. (I've been anxiously watching my CP rise all week. I was in the 40s up until about Wednesday.) You know, with only a few hours left until the conquest re-tally (every Sunday morning) when Windurst will undoubtedly take first among the three again.
I HAVE WANTED ONE OF THESE FOR EVER. Longer than the Scorpion Harness, because while SH is supergear, this is just awesome and San d'Orian and stuff.
Aravoge is my favourite Knight. I do not know why, especially considering I tend to prefer the Royal Knights to the Temple Knights. (TRION > PIEUJE AND SAME FOR THEIR RESPECTIVE KNIGHTS. I'M JUST SAYIN'.) Possibly just because he's the guy stationed by the South San d'Oria exit to West Ronfaure, which is the one I almost always use. Anyway, so of course I bought it from him.
Here is the front again without the chat log or my name showing anywhere.
THIS IS THE BACK. The problem with the modified Mithra stance is that sometimes when there is an update, the modification gets a little whacked out and you have to go in and fix it, or things can look really weird. Like here. I really should fix that... It is a bit annoying. Still! Having to fix it will never annoy me enough to make me put the original .dat files back, because OH GOD MY EYES THEY BUUUURN MAKE THE PAIN STOP.
Seriously, I never knew how awful it looked until I stopped using it. (Compare one of the front facing images here to this one and hopefully you'll see what I mean. Awkward! ooooh, Christmas event is coming soon, isn't it? :D :D :D)
And here is San d'Oria's little emblemthing on the side of my arm.
AND NOW I ONLY HAVE 93 CP LEFT. haha, that's not enough to buy anything! I can't even recharge my Empress band.
But that is okay! I have my Kingdom Aketon now.
