13 Cue the flamenco dance...

Iris walked into the Tailor's shop and saw Tom put down the phone and dashed towards her: "Young lass, hello!... come, come and follow me" The Tailor grabbed her hand and briskly walked towards the door leading to the warehouse. He was extremely excited as he had spent the night making an outfit that would have taken a week if it were a normal order. Iris gathered that Tom was aware of her class from the enthusiasm he had from dragging her to the warehouse. As they both semi-ran through the door to the warehouse, Iris saw the same-old piles of clothes scattered around. Unaware to Iris, Tom had delayed a few orders to complete her's. They arrived at a corner then turning down a long aisle of clothing racks.

—The tailor shop is really big!, it looks tiny from the outside, almost like that retro-film: Dukesman(1) —

Finally, Tom came to a stop in front of a small door with no doorknob. Tom pushed the door and it swung open; Tom was quite lazy when it came to everything not-clothes so he had forgotten to replace the doorknob. He almost danced into the room shutting the door behind him. Iris was about to call out to see if she could come in when Tom flung the door open, yanking her inside.

The room had a sky-light letting the afternoon light illuminated the room. The walls were covered with sketches of clothing and other attire. Small cuttings of cloth littered the varnished red-wood floor. In the centre was an old sewing machine that had seen its fair share of years, yet seemed to as shiny as new. But overall this, Iris' eye caught on to the odd mannequin, standing at her exact height.

—Is that my outfit? .. not bad for a pre-set game costume..—

What Iris didn't know was that the system had measured her strengths and weaknesses and made a costume suited just for her, not a pre-made quest reward that she had assumed...

"Young lass..." Tom watched her look at his work in detail "..Do you like it? I made it to your class which I assume is a dance?"

Iris snapped her head out of focus and nodded at him. Tom then told her to have a closer look: From first glance, it was obviously inspired by a flamenco dress. A skirt hung from the upper waist, held by two sewn on bracers. The skirt full to the Knees with multiple layers resembling the Spanish dress. Underneath this was a thick white sleeveless blouse with a 'V' neckline stretching quite low but not revealing anything - not that Iris' character could in any way use a low cut neckline(2). Covering the arms were two loose arm warmers sewn into a similar shape at the skirt. At the waist was a delicate belt made of rope with some small pouches hanging off it. Iris snickered at the similarity to the old folk tale: Little Red Riding Hood, a large red coat covered the head and back of the figure like a blanket. One could see small vine and flower patterns adorning the edges. Iris assumed that dancers were a stealth class so this made her confused.. a red blob running across the enemies territory, stealth wouldn't work but the intimidating effect would.

"If your worried about blending in just flip the coat over so the black side is outside!" Tom made a good point, as the inside of the coat was a matte black shade and could be reversed as was demonstrated by Tom in one fluid motion. After, Tom motioned towards a small cubicle in the corner of the room whilst passing the mannequin to her and shooing her towards it.

After a while, Iris managed to pull the coat over the equipment...

—WOW, so much stuff!! hidden attributes and a new way to get skills—

Tom walked over and viewed her for a few seconds. He smiles brilliantly and twired around screaming words like fabulous everywhere. Iris felt a little better as she has previously felt uncomfortable wearing such stylish clothing. After a few minutes, Tom stopped lecturing her on how to take care of her armour and sent her on her way, saying she could come back anytime.
