The Wayfarer's clothes are a piece of clothing in the series. They offer low-level protection to novice adventurers, especially those who cannot wear heavier armour.

Characteristics[edit | edit source]

The wayfarer's clothes consists of a sturdy, long blue sleeveless tunic made out of hemp, worn with a leather belt around the waist, and a blue cape. They can typically be purchased in the first town a player visits in a game.

In Stars, it is known as the traveller's attire and has a completely different design, consisting of a lime green tunic worn over a blue long-sleeved shirt, a leather belt around the waist with a small pouch in the front, and a pair of leather gloves. It also gained a counterpart for the legs slot, like many other pieces of equipment. This design is based on the archer's clothes from Dragon Quest X and also appears in A Hero's Bonds.
