Accepting the Quest

Thubyrgeim: Well, if it isn't [Forename]. Precisely the woman/man I wished to see.
Thubyrgeim: You will recall Y'mhitra of the Sons of Saint Coinach. Well, she has recently finished compiling her research into summoning, and was kind enough to send a copy of it to our guild. I was pleased to note that you are listed as a collaborator.
Thubyrgeim: I must say it is quite a fascinating read, especially the section covering those essences of primals called egi. You are able to manifest the beings, yes?
Thubyrgeim: Wonderful. In which case, I should like your assistance with an experiment. If you are willing, pray join me in the practice area. I will reveal the details there.

Optional Dialogue

Thubyrgeim: Pray go on ahead to the practice area. I will reveal the details of the experiment there.

Waiting for Thubyrgeim in the guild's practice area

Thubyrgeim: My apologies for the wait.
Thubyrgeim: To begin with, might I ask you to call forth an egi? I should very much like to see one with mine own eyes. Mayhap the Ifrit-Egi would be suitable─I understand that it was the first such being to be summoned.
Thubyrgeim: Yes, a most impressive being indeed. Created, according to Y'mhitra, in the image of the entity which one most closely associates with fire: Ifrit.
Thubyrgeim: It is my hypothesis that the same fundamental principle could be employed to alter the form of an egi, by calling to mind another image.
Thubyrgeim: Pray summon the Ifrit-Egi again, but this time focus your consciousness upon Carbuncle. It shouldn't be difficult, given the bond you share.
Thubyrgeim: Brilliant! My theory holds!
Thubyrgeim: Whilst it takes the form of Carbuncle, there is no mistaking its aetherial composition.
Thubyrgeim: I should not imagine that the abilities it wields have changed─for all intents and purposes, it is still an Ifrit-Egi. But now we know that there is no limit to an egi's appearance.
Thubyrgeim: Well, I must be returning to my post. Let us continue this upstairs.

Speaking with Thubyrgeim

Thubyrgeim: [Forename], you have my thanks for indulging me. This experiment has unearthed a new world of possibility for arcane entities, and I hope you will find use for the discovery.
System: An egi's outward appearance can now be altered by using /petglamour.
System: For example, if you want your Garuda-Egi to appear as if it were Ruby Carbuncle, use the text command /petglamour “garuda-egi” “ruby carbuncle”.
System: For details, enter /? /petglamour.
