The '''sage's robe''' is a recurring robe in the [[Dragon Quest (series)|''Dragon Quest'']] series that first appeared in [[Dragon Quest V]]. It is a highly protective robe for spellcasters that protects the wearer against magical damage.


The '''sage's robe''', also known as the '''philosopher robe''', is a recurring robe in the [[Dragon Quest (series)|''Dragon Quest'']] series. It is a highly protective robe for spellcasters that protects the wearer against magical damage.
==Characteristics==
The sage's robe has seen three radically divergent designs in the series history. Its first depiction was that of a brown robe more akin to a Western fantasy design than anything from [[Akira Toriyama]], which was replaced by a lavender gown with a golden chest piece, purple collar, and purple filigree along the sleeves and ending hem in the [[PlayStation 2]] remake of ''V''. The ninth game's design resembles the official robes of the Catholig pope, dyed blue with golden trim.
