The '''magic vestment''' is a recurring robe in the series. It can be worn by priests and other spellcasters and reduces damage from magic spells.


The '''magic vestment''', also known as the '''Magic Robe''' or '''Sacred Robe''' is a recurring robe in the [[Dragon Quest (series)|''Dragon Quest'']] franchise. It can be worn by priests and other spellcasters and reduces damage from magic spells.
==Localization history==
まほうのほうい and まほうの法衣 have been translated into English as the magic vestment in most appearances, though in ''III'', ''IX'', & ''Treasures'' it has been translated as the [[magical robes]] instead.
 
==Characteristics==
The design of the magic vestment has changed little over the years. It is a long, trailing robe similar to those worn by real life clergy, with a high collar and white fur lining, clasps in the front, and gold crosses embroidered on the sleeves. In most of the art, the robe appears to be either a red or magenta colour, but it is depicted as mint green in ''IV''. The length of the robe has changed depending on the game as well, as the end trails on the ground behind the wearer in ''III'' and ''IV'', but in later games, the robe ends at the ankles. The robe's name in Japanese, ''Mahō no [[Wiktionary:法衣#Japanese|hōi]]'', refers to a ceremonial garment worn by either a Buddhist or Taoist priest.

Appearing under the moniker of Magical Robes, the magic vestment is the first in a line of posh clothing that pumps up the otherworldly arts with aplomb.
The magic vestment is a 3★ outfit that can be equipped by [[Mage]]s, [[Priest]]s, and [[Sage]]s. When equipped, it would temporarily lower the target's Fire Resistance by 20% after performing a Boss Break. In this game, the vestment included trousers and boots that are worn underneath. It could be acquired commonly from limited Treasure Hunts.
