The magic vestment, known as the cleric's magic robe[1] in Japanese, is a recurring robe in the Dragon Quest series. It can be worn by priests and other spellcasters and reduces damage from magic spells.

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 yellow rhombus designs embroidered near the sleeves. In most of the art, the robe appears to be either a red or magenta color, 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. In Japanese, the word hoi refers to a ceremonial garment worn by either a Buddhist or Taoist priest.
