been bought, it can be used by six people and is valid for seven days. Price
varies depending on the current population of the server.

___ V. Changing allegiance ____________________________________________________

You can change allegiance, i.e. the country you are fighting for. Pay 10000gil
to the relevant NPC and your country will change, you will lose your rank but
you will keep your conquest points. Useful for people who want to play the game
completely, experiencing all the mission events, or for people who want to
get better conquest rewards.

 Windurst (Tower)     |       |  Rakano-Marukano


___ VI. Buying a linkshell ____________________________________________________

can all communicate on the same channel. After buying a linkshell, it can be
given a name and a colour of your choice.

 Bastok (Port)        |  E-7  |  Ilita
 San d'Oria (South)   |  E-8  |  Paunelie
 Windurst (Port)      |  H-9  |  Khel Pahlhama


___ VII. Buying the starting armour ___________________________________________

Chances are, if you run out of space in your moghouse, you may want to discard
the free armour you get when you start the game, to save space. If you want to
buy it again later, you can acquire it for a small price from the following
NPCs.

 Hume and Galka armour:
 Bastok (Mines)       |  K-8  |  Proud Beard

 Tarutaru and Mithra armour:
 Windurst (Port)      |  E-7  |  Kucha Malkobhi


___ VIII. Buying maps _________________________________________________________

The following NPCs sell maps for dungeons and areas nearby. Prices vary from
100gil to the early region maps (e.g. Bastok, San d'Oria etc) to 3000gil for
the harder dungeon maps (e.g. Eldieme, Oztroya etc). Bear in mind, there are
a lot of maps that can only be received from quests, as well.

___ IX. Lucky Roll ____________________________________________________________

Lucky Roll is a gambling game held in Rabao and Norg. You can play once each
Vana'diel day. You pay 100gil to enter, and then you roll a dice. The number
(1-6) is added to a running total that is calculated from other players' rolls.
When the total reaches 400, the counter resets and the player that pushed it
to 400 (or beyond) gets a 10,000gil payout. If it lands on 400 exactly, there
is an additional prize. The two NPCs are connected, so your roll is added to
a single total shared between Norg and Rabao.

 Norg                 |  H-8  |  Repat
 Rabao                |  H-7  |  Mileon


___ X. The Vana'diel Weather Linkshell ________________________________________

Vana'diel has its very own Linkshell of weather forecasters. You can ask them
for weather forecasts for the next three days. This is particularly useful for
the Summoner quest, where you need to subject a stone to different types of
weather. Here are the members.
