Let's be realistic: What would you like as a memento from the end of the world?

While I feel that those asking to keep one or more of the relics they're giving out are either completely insane or joking, I do find the idea of SE granting a memento to players that decided to stay until the very end appeasing.

So here's the question. What would you like as such a memento? Feel free to be creative (after all we wouldn't receive it until the opening of ARR, so there's time for SE to work on it), but be realistic. Of course it can't be something that costed other players weeks of work, it can't be overpowered, and it can't be TOO time consuming to implement, they have to work on the game after all.

Mind you. While the last save already happened, SE could easily award such a memento via the account. They have a redemption system, and I'm quite sure that they have ways to detect who has been online during "the end of the world", so they could very possibly unlock the memento via our accounts.

Here are a few ideas:

1: a piece of commemorative furniture, maybe made from the wood of gridania (that looks like it's gonna be destroyed), to use in the new housing system in ARR. or a sapling from the destroyed forest of Black Shroud. to use as a potted plant in our house (maybe a glowing ward tree?).
2: Since everyone wants relics, A "Blessing of the Twelve" item that allows you to start the relic quest, instead of the seals you'd normally have to get. The Twelve granted us use of the relics to fight back the minions of dalamud, and when they took them back they left us with a blessing to give us a nudge in the right direction to actually earn them.
3: Some kind of cosmetic mourning gear, to commemorate those that gave and lost their lives during the "end of the world"
4: A collectible Van Darnus figurine to put in your in-game house.
5: A decorative Dalamud globe for the house (yeah, I like decorating my house :P)
6: A title (yeah, banal, but hey)
7: An exclusive character customization option in the form of a scar or a tattoo, symbolizing the battle against the minions of dalamud.
8: My very favorite: A broken relic. Completely cosmetic and non functional. Either to be worn or to be used as a decoration for your house. They gave us relics to fight, and they broke during the final battle.

Feel free to add yours :D

Rainbow Ponies Mount.

I want a [GM] Yuyukosai plushy.

personaly...I would like a low interest loan to spent on purchasing my own chocobo ranch... but beyond that maybe a nael van darnus chocobo barding o.o?

I think Legacy Status, the reduced price, and Legacy Chocobo are more than enough to make me happy. Seriously, we're already getting pretty spoiled just on those three things alone; give the whole "I'm entitled to free stuff because I want more free stuff" argument a rest.

I want a White Raven, but that's out. :(

Guess I wanna something I remember from the old Gridania since I love my hometown so much! ^^

... and... a Garuda, in person, if u will. XD

No one here said we're entitled to anything. There's a large difference between feeling entitled to something and giving a suggestion that may be cool.

Nothing. The final week is just silly and fun. I don't think anyone should get anything extra for staying with it since nothing that's happening makes sense anyway.

Actually everything that's happening makes sense. What exactly doesn't make sense to you?

Now that I think of it, I do know what I want:

Make 1.0 an offline game! If this game is scrapped by SE, then at least give me the chance to relive old-day Eorzea from other perspective. (Only played the gridanian storyline, mind you) XD

I know some of u don't want to come back to 1.0 again, so don't comment if you object. This is a wish for someone who cherishes 1.0 only. XD

And all the other things that will only ever happen in 1.0 that we get to carry on. .

If you think 10 Nael van Darnus spawning around town at the same time, 60+ goblins lining up single file down the entire street, and random mobs such as "Imperial Guy" just standing there not even doing anything or attacking makes sense I would kindly ask that you don't seek a career as a writer of some sort.

Not to mention none of the NPCs at all are responding to this. Some still say things like "no monsters can come in here", while a morbol is humping its face.

A nice little memento would be a fragment of Dalamud. It does nothing at all, but I would love to have just either a small replica scale of it, if not just a fragment that says it is.

They're manifestations of the spirits absorbed by dalamud.

Oh I remember that we are getting some kind of turn on / off on character memento.

For those who played through the end - probably a tattoo or glow lol

I'd be pretty pissed. In fact I'm being biased because this is not my account. I've been playing this game straight through since closed beta 2010 and at the end of September I had a card error and my account got deactivated. By the time I could renew it was October and was too late.

All this time looking forward to the final week on my main character only to be totally shafted by digital bank bullshit and have it ruined. So yeah. I'd be pretty happy if we didn't get something special for this week because I'd be furious in ARR.

The glow or tattoo, whatever it happens to be, will firstly be able to be turned off. Secondly they said any character frm Pre 2.0 will have it. So You should be fine from everything i've heard on it. I'll need to find the source for it though.

I surely hope so. Now I'm worried lol.

I want a lalafell-shaped football for me to /punt, complete with animation and sound effects.

We shouldn't even be thinking about obtaining anything after final save date, period.

Pretty sure we're already getting this one. Can't be bothered to find the source but I remember them saying our characters would have some kind of mark on them from 1.0 that you could /display toggle or something like that.

darnus armor pieces lol

**edit
infact what i want is to replace my PLD gears from my quests for the darnus armor
i want the same stats of course... lol

Been saying it for a while... I always wanted Nael's gear... its just made of wicked win. But for several obvious reasons (apart from game dynamics), it makes it sense that it is unobtainable because it is his signature look.

BTW, as far as events go; for tomorrow we should all be able to dress up as Nael and PvP with each other... either that or sit at the Adventurers lounge throwing /snowballs at each other.

I want Merlwyb Bloefhiswyn as a memento to take with me! :p

*feels the awkward stares on me*

But if you use your other arm it'll feel like someone else is wrestling for you! :O

Exclusive features in character creation would be nice. To show that we were here until the end.

Well, If I could have anything, I'd want something similar to Lightning's Armband / Shoulder guard showing her the Rank she is in, which in this case, would show a "Meteor Survivor" Symbol (The "O" in a Realm RebOrn). It'd be the most awesome thing If It went with a half-cape as well.

We have already mementos. White Ravens, Dalamud's Horn and the imperial hats

a memento for the last 7 days could be a quest were we obtain a code. Write down the code to register it later to get a memento item without SE need to save the account datas again ^^

Maybe not an item code, but a "100% you are in" beta code? ^^

I got them before the save; an Imperial Operative Tricorne and Imperial Operative Hat. You're fooling yourself if you think there will be anything from after the save.

Yeah seriously.

- Imperial Operative Hat
- Imperial Operative Tricorn
- Goobbue

And people want MORE?

My Dalamud Horn is pretty shiny.
