About two weeks ago, a viewer asked if I could do a mod for the Promise Keeper outfit, to shorten the coat and skirt, and I said I will give it a try. Normally a mod to trim an outfit would not be too difficult but given that the Promise Keeper is a customizable outfit, I cannot guarantee that it can work since I have never work on one. That is because if I mess up the customizable area versus the non-customizable area, the outfit might looks weird after player applies a customized look.
But as a promise keeper 😉 , I did check it out and found it workable. So, in this week's post we have the Promise Keeper mod, not just for Jin but also for Gon and Yun. But I will only focus on the Jin mod, since the outfit is exactly same for all three races.
The Promise Keeper is a very new outfit given as a chance reward for the 2018 Golden Harvest Festival event, which has just ended at the writing of this post. It can be obtained by chance when spinning the Wheel of Fate at Hogshead Hamlet in the Moonwater Plains map, using a token that is given by chance when player opens yet another chest (or rather table 😆 ). So you need to be double lucky to get the outfit. 😅 But if you are really that unlucky or want it for your other characters, you can always buy the pouch from the in-game marketplace.
The Promise Keeper actually has a very simple oriental look, with a split-tail coat worn over a cheongsam. There is a simple pattern at the front depicting two phoenixes worshipping a sun in the middle on the cheongsam. The edges of the cheongsam is terminated with thick silky golden linings. The split-tail coat is also embroidered with faint dragons patterns.
Let's take a look at the original outfit below.

The grey colored front-open coat is worn over the light purple cheongsam.

The phoenix pattern can be seen at the front, just below where the coat is cut off.

| Rear View - Original Outfit |
The coat has a split tail design and extends further down than the cheongsam.

On the two tail cloths of the coat, we can also see a bird figure, that reminds me of the bird figure of the Nazca lines, on each side. However, they are blocked by the hair in the image above. You can see it better in the video.

From the side view, the front of the coat can be seen to cut off squarely at the waist level, to reveal the slits on the sides of the cheongsam.

In the request, the viewer asked for the coat and cheongsam to be shortened, so that is what I did. Other than trimming the cheongsam and coat, I also adjusted the square cutting so that the front of the coat can link smoothly to the rear.
Let's look at the modified outfit below.

| Front View - Modified Outfit |
As seen above, the cheongsam is now considerably shorter. The phoenix pattern has also been adjusted upwards to keep it complete.

The split tail of the coat and the rear cloth of the cheongsam has also been trimmed accordingly, with the coat ending before the cheongsam.
Eagle-eyed viewer my have noticed that I kept the square patterns at the edge of the cheongsam for the tail cloth but not the front.

Unfortunately, I have to let go of the two Nazca bird patterns on the removed split tail.

As seen from the two side views above, the front of the coat now slides gradually to the sides before meeting the rear edge.
We have reach the end of this post. Watch the video to see the outfit being customized for Jin, Gon and Yun.
