Notes
- Added in the May 2023 Version Update.
- This item was originally designed and displayed as just an image in the 2023 April Fool's Day Version Update notes as a parody of the Aegis Relic Shield. According to the update notes "The issue wherein the visual appearance of the shield Aegis was found to be lacking. It has been improved."
- It is not currently known if the development team intended to always eventually introduce it to the game or if it was implemented due to some (perceived or legitimate) fan demand.
Lore
The face of the Aegis shield has been changed to portray that of the Japanese character Hyottoko. In Japanese stories, Hyottoko is a child-like figure with a comical expression on his face. His mouth is almost always rounded and skewed to one side, as the stories about him usually involve him blowing on a bamboo pipe. In Iwate Prefecture, there is a myth about the origin of the character. In this story, there's a boy with a bizarre face who could create gold out of his belly button. When someone died in a home, you would put the mask at the top of the fireplace to bring good fortune. The name of the boy was Hyoutokusu. In some parts of northeastern Japan, Hyottoko is regarded as the god of fire.
