    Can we have a quest to obtain an Archon mark?

    I know I know it'd be messy timeline wise effectively having to have a character write a thesis and all, and there might be annoying story implications later... But especially for mage characters we barely ever get a chance to flex our intellect!

    I demand my honorary degree for saving the universe!

    I just want to be able to fit in with my fellow Scions for Oschon's sake.

    Man I'd settle for a pair of those fancy aether-vision goggles. Four expansions of fetch quests and back-breaking, world saving labor later, I still feel like the unpaid intern.

    The archon mark is the mark or scholarly achievement. This is why Alisaie, Lyse, and Alphinaud don't have one. Saving the universe doesn't mean we're the smartest peanut out there.

    My understanding is the twins left before they could go for an Archon mark. Thancred's is in espionage, stealth, stuff like that.

    I wouldn't be surprised if the twins get theirs sooner or later. If Alisaie gets the credit for discovering the cure for tempering it might be a small formality of her just writing a paper about it. (Might be a nice twist if she ends up getting one before Alphi via Matoya or someone telling the studium about her efforts to reverse tempering.)

    You can get sharlayan goggles at the gold saucer. They have a cool glow effect when you visor up. There's also a face tattoo like uriangeir you can put on and then give it that deep purple/violet color

    100% agree. I've been wanting an archon mark since I started playing.

    I did my dissertation on interspecies and intercultural non-verbal communication across multiple dimensions. I'm sure the Faculty of Anthropology would appreciate that as a useful area of knowledge.
