"Out of the Ashes, a Phoenix is Reborn"

Specialty clothing and armor pricing and descriptions:

Name:	Picture of item:	Description of item:
Black sandals Origin NPC jeweler shopkeepers' corpses		The sandals are sometimes found on the corpses of NPC jeweler shopkeepers after you kill them. Unfortunately to kill an NPC shopkeeper adds a murder count to your total and very quickly you will go red. Also it is quite hard to get in a kill and get out before guards do anything unless you have a fast connection. Black Sandals sell for about 50,000 gold pieces but in their blessed form (by using a clothing bless deed on them which was obtained through the clean up Britannia campaign) of then sells for around 800,000 gold pieces due to the bless deeds themselves being worth around 750,000 gold pieces.
Leprechaun clothing set Origin Leprechauns' corpses		On and around St. Patrick's Day in 1999 leprechauns spawned all around Britannia and on their corpses were left this leprechaun clothing. Apparently the color is a "unique" green, but I am not sure just how close you can get to it with a dye tub or special dye tub, unfortunately it doesn't say "Leprechaun" on the items which would have made it much more special. A full leprechaun suit is worth around 1 Million gold pieces, although it is hard to tell the difference, even if the colors are unique.
Phoenix Armor Origin Clean up Britannia campaign		These came from the clean up Britannia campaign when you received credit points for throwing away unwanted or unused items. For every 100,000 credits you could choose to have a special gift such as a random piece of Phoenix Armor Phoenix Armor is quite rare these days and are worth around 2 million - 5 million gold pieces per piece of Phoenix Armor, depending on the shards age. However, as a rule of thumb use the following guide: Phoenix Arms or Helm - 4 Million Gold Pieces Phoenix Gorget or Gloves - 3 Million Gold Pieces Phoenix Legs - 5 Million Gold Pieces Phoenix Tunic - 6 Million Gold Pieces Total Phoenix Set - 25 Million Gold Pieces Note: Phoenix armor is Blessed and cannot be lost upon death, nor stolen by a thief.
Ranger Armor Origin Newbie gifts		Upon entering Britannia for the first time each character received half a special gift coupon. The person had to find another new player with which to exchange their coupon so that the two could be combined to give each person a gift. The choices were (at the time I entered Britannia for the first time): A hair restyle deed A piece of ranger armor A fireworks wand A full spell book Around Christmas 2000 a special offer was given by OSI. Free accounts were given out for those with an account already and so the gifts were changed. I am not sure whether they were taken out or just changed or whether they will ever be implemented again since they were taken out. Ranger armor is just studded leather armor dyed green and gave no special benefits. Nowadays with leather dye tubs the same color can be made, but unlike the leprechaun suit these items can retain value as they have the description "a ranger tunic" etc. when clicked on. Ranger Arms, Gorget, or Gloves - 35,000 gold pieces Ranger Legs - 45,000 gold pieces Ranger Tunic - 50,000 gold pieces Total Ranger Set - 200,000 gold pieces
Santa gloves Origin Santa corpses		These were obtained during Christmas 1998 on Santa corpses when Santas spawned around Britain. They are just leather gloves dyed black and they cannot be created at the moment as the leather dye tub cannot get black dye, and the black dye tub cannot dye leather so these are quite rare. Very few of these are known to exist, and even then they are mainly on the older shards. Although the picture below is a little light in color, this gives you an example of what the Santa's looked like. The gloves are noticeable in the picture below. Value: 6 Million Gold Pieces
Santa (Seer Played)
Santa Tunic Origin "Chief Santa" corpses		These were obtained during Christmas 1998 when the "Chief" Santa's who were played by Seers had taken over some of the Dungeons. The Chief Santas were wearing a Red Chainmail Tunics along with Santa Gloves. Only the lead Santa had the Tunic as compared to all the Santa's whom had gloves. The Santa Tunic is today considered one of the truly rare items as there are no ingot colors that are close to red, and armor cannot be dyed. The Tunic says "Chainmail Tunic" when clicked upon. The above image is a good example of a Seer Run Santa (although the image above is not from the 1998 Christmas Days which is why the 'Santa' has purple text, it's a modern Seer run Santa). However, the Santa from Christmas 1998 looked exactly like this Santa except that instead of the Red Cloth Tunic, he would be wearing the Red Santa Chainmail Tunic. Value: 15 Million Gold Pieces
