If I'm going aesthetic, I want to look the part. Even better if the clothes can be dyed. Maybe a selection of styles based on various traditions--Buddhist, christian, pagan, Shaolin, etc.

I had this idea as well, though i was thinking that the robes can also apply armor toughness cause even with the full armor bar, with no toughness you can still die quite easily.

they would be made with a special cloth that you can only craft from a certain string that you can get from a flower that grows only in the End islands, so you would had to have to beaten the dragon or achieved level 20 (maybe the recipe don't even show up until your 20?)
