Elder Scrolls Online fans, pay attention: Since 01.04, there are cat costumes in the style of the Khajiit in the Bethesda Gear Store. Price: a whopping 100,000 dollars.
Looking for a cool outfit for your kitty? Check out the Bethesda Gear Shop! For 100,000 dollars, you can find stylish outfits for fashion-conscious kitties. What, that cheap? Is that a joke? Unfortunately, yes.
The costume does indeed exist in the Bethesda Gear Store, a kind of real-life shop for The Elder Scrolls Online, but purchasing it is not possible.
If you try to add the costume to your cart, you get the message “Happy Jesters Day” – “Happy April 1st.”
Since the release of the costumes was on April 1st, we can assume that it is an April Fool’s joke.
However, you can still find the costumes in the shop.
Here’s what’s available
The joke was well executed. The folks at Bethesda spared no effort and dressed a cat in a few funny outfits.
But as it looks, the kitty was not impressed. In all the pictures, she looks quite grumpy.
Five wonderfully quirky costumes were offered:
- Proper Alfiq Banker
- Diligent Alfiq Merchant
- Venerable Alfiq Clan Matron
- Cultivated Alfiq Men’s Outfitters
- Alfiq Parasite Carrier
Unfortunately, the names were not matched to the photographed costumes.
Alfiqs: The House Khajiit
Wait a moment, what is an Alfiq? Alfiqs are one of the 17 known Khajiit races and are the most similar to the cats from our world. They are just as small and also walk on four paws. However, they are just as intelligent as their larger relatives and also understand the human language.
My cat really wants one of those costumes! What should I do? Well, you have to use your creativity. Take your grandma’s old rug and cut out a piece. Now you have a nice Khajiit cloak.
In an oriental jewelry store, you are sure to find a nice necklace that looks similar to the ones in the pictures.
A matching headgear is also quickly organized. Take a washcloth and wrap it around the cat’s head. You now have the authentic look of a purebred Alfiq from Elsweyr!
A Khajiit not only needs something nice to wear; he also needs drugs:
