Additional Information

Omikujishi Fortune.png

He calls himself unusual for a Viera when it comes to how he decides to name himself, choosing one of twelve names depending on the "outlook of [his] fortune." He has currently gone by:

  • Morisoba (during Heavensturn 2023)
  • Taiyaki (during Heavensturn 2024)
  • Kinpira (during Heavensturn 2025)

The Omikujishi allows players to draw fortunes for 100 gil. Each fortune has a main message, plus messages for the categories Adventure, Relationships, Prosperity, Conflict and Favor. Players can draw as many fortunes as they wish, each requiring the fee.

Dialogue

Far Eastern Omikujishi: Greetings, my friend. I deal in omikuji─traditional Far Eastern fortunes. Would you care to draw one?

Learn about the origins of omikuji

Far Eastern Omikujishi: Omikuji date back thousands of years. 'Tis said that twelve beasts of Far Eastern legend─known locally as messengers of the divine─once appeared before a monk in his dreams, and imparted to him twelve divine revelations each.
Far Eastern Omikujishi: Believing the vast wisdom bestowed upon him was not his alone to keep, the monk compiled each of the twelve revelations from the twelve beasts into fortunes─one hundred and forty-four all told─and then began a journey to spread this knowledge to others, for the benefit of all.
Far Eastern Omikujishi: As he traveled the land, word of the fortunes spread far and wide throughout the Far East. That, my friend, is how omikuji came to be.

Learn about the omikujishi

Far Eastern Omikujishi: I am but a man who, over the course of many winters, has come to find himself enthralled by the mysteries surrounding the number twelve.
Far Eastern Omikujishi: The twelve beasts of the Far East, the Twelve deities of Eorzea, and the twelve surnames of Viera males─do you not find your own curiosity piqued by how the number appears in myriad cultures around the star? I cannot help but wonder if there is some connection we have yet to discover.
Far Eastern Omikujishi: It was during my journey to uncover this mystery that I discovered the omikuji, and it is the omikuji which have led me to where I stand today.
Far Eastern Omikujishi: Ah, I neglected to tell you my name! It is “(year-dependent name),” at present. Though we Viera who have chosen to venture from our homeland are prone to changing our names on a whim, I'm a rather unusual case. I switch between twelve different names depending on the outlook of my fortune!
