Shrinemaid's Robe

Archivist's Excerpt from: Trinkets, Tech, & Tinkery: A Comprehensive Inventory of All Possible Equipment One Might Need When Circumnavigating the World, Inside & Out, Tabletop Edition, CVI 42.5

Within the confined of Jalós Zealotry in Jalóheim, the caste of adherents to the faith whose job it is to oversee the regular duties and rites of the religion, the Shrinemaid's Robe, one finds many details blended together from traditions of both their older Galó heritage and their contemporary experience in The Expanse, one of which is the symbology and appearance of the Shrinemaid's Robe given to all members of the caste.

Blue with faded white edging, the robes indicate the status of Shrinemaid to the rest of the village. The crimson belt is common enough, though most of the girls forget it half the time.

The Shrinemaids of the Temple of Jalós are to wear the robe at all times while on duty, if not otherwise, and it bears on its back the ornamental crest of Jalós Zealotry.

The robes are, unsurprisingly, poorly made and fairly useless from a utilitarian perspective, perhaps other than keeping the wind off a bit. Each one is a might different from the others. While this could be attributed to creative symbology, the truth is that nobody bothered to make a proper pattern of the things, so every one is unfortunately distinct.

The recognizable nature of the robe in Jalóheim would make it possible for just about anybody to parade around as a Shrinemaid, but nobody would want to do such a thing.
