I like the toga, and the badge... pity they'll be gone by the time i7 rolls around.

I don't understand why people keep saying/wondering if they are going away. The santa hats are still around arnt' they. Seems to me that if the Devs take the costume options away, it wouldl just cause problems for people currently using them (ie, what would be put in it's place, would there be even more free tailoring sessions, etc).

The characters that have already claimed them will keep them, but after a certain date, no new characters will get it. And, after that date, if your character hasn't logged on you won't it.

Wouldn't that mean his battlecry should be 'XIII'?

This is very cool.

But I have to ask... Why?

Am I missing some Roman holiday that would warrant a toga/tunic/dress? Or is it just because?

Valentines day -> Cupid.

Cupid - > Roman name for Eros.

Eros - > Greek godling of Love (son of Aphrodite/Venus).

Cupid is sometimes depicted as a youth in a toga with bow and arrow, not always as a flying cherub.

Ok, I guess I never really associated togas with valentines day, but whatever, it's cool!

Now, can you wear the "skirt" part with a different top or the top with a different bottom?

I never consciously put two-and-two together with Togas and V-Day, but something just sorta clicked when I read about them as an unlock.

Eros = erotic.

The toga was a one piece item on my female. I don't know if it's the same on males.

It's a shirt/jacket/robe category item. It shows up after "Armored" called "Unique Tops" or somesuch like that.

Damn, I was hoping to us it as a kilt

Oh, and Awry replied to me!! YAY!!

ARGGGGGH!

You can't have a tail with the Toga!

Devs, please stop discriminating against the tailed folk.

For those wanting kilts, weren't formal kilts worn as the skirt and a chest piece much like the top of a toga that matched. I swear in Braveheart they had that on shoulder thing jusat like a Toga. Make it green and you're good to go...all they have to do now is allow you to make it plaid.

Thanks for the link, Awry. I wondered what I was downloading last night when I didn't have time to login and play.


total kick to the gut

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

Ah yes, thank you for the correction. It's been a number of low-sleep nights and my memory is shot.

Anyway, yes, the Gamester!

Watch it all you who enter Pocket D...

Yeah, I'm definitely guilty of using the toga as a tunic. Call me crazy, but I think it makes a pretty good fancy tunic.

Now, I've never had the best taste, but I came up with this. You can't really see the golden body sparkles in the picture, but they're there.

Toga? And give up my Gucci bathrobe? I don't think so Tim.
