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.

Localization history[edit]

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[edit]

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 hōi, refers to a ceremonial garment worn by either a Buddhist or Taoist priest.

Appearances[edit]

Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen[edit]

The magic vestment has a Defence bonus of +35 (+38 in the NES Version), reduces non-Zap spell damage by 33%, and can only be worn by Kiryl and Meena. It can be purchased from Dunplundrin, Canalot, Rosehill, Riverton, and the Azimuth for 4,400 gold and sold for 3,300 gold.

Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past[edit]

The magic vestment has a Defence bonus of +30, a Style bonus of +20, and reduces non-Zap spell damage by 25 points. It may only be equipped by Maribel, Ruff, and Sir Mervyn. It can be purchased from Alltrades Abbey in the present and El Ciclo in the past for 4,000 gold and sold for 2,000 gold.
