Auron..Bisht?

[Prancing Mad]

kimono is like shimono, which is greek for cold. What do you wear when it's cold? A kimono. There you go. Auron is based on the greek language

Did you get the special edition version of FFX that had the DVD with it? If not I'll explain:

"Auron's character design calls to mind the quintessential "wandering ronin"; he bears more than a passing resemblance to the "Sanjuro" character played by actor Toshiro Mifune in the film Yojimbo. Both allow one sleeve to dangle empty while concealing the arm inside their robe, a ronin characteristic referring to the loss of a master (the symbolic loss of the sword arm). Aside from physical appearance, both are largely silent, often brusque when they deem it necessary to speak, and are frequently seen scratching their chins. Internet rumors claim designer Tetsuya Nomura used a figurine of Mifune as "inspiration" when drawing the character; however, he has not admitted to this in any interviews."

Hmm 'loss of a master'... that would fit in with losing Braska wouldn't it?

I looked up the bisht and they look alot like the clothes Auron wears but they aren't where his character design come from.

Whoa Toshiro Mifune? Very interesting.. for personal reasons. Anyway, it could be a mix of Mifune and the Bisht thing. It doesn't have to be solely based on one thing.
