Cosmetics

Cosmetics change how you look and nothing else. Not one of them touches a stat, a drop rate or an experience gain, and none of them can be traded — a frame is a flag on your character rather than an item in your bag, so there is nothing to list and nothing to sell.

Portrait frames

The ring around your portrait. Everyone starts with Bronze Ring, and you may switch to any you have unlocked at any time.

Frame	How to get it
No Frame The face alone — no ring at all.	Available from the start
Bronze Ring The ring every gladiator wears onto the sand.	Available from the start
Laurel Wreath Woven for those who lasted twenty levels.	Reach level 20
Iron Band Beaten from a blade that broke in the arena.	Reach level 35
Gilded Ring Only the Ascended wear gold.	Reach level 50
Frontier Circlet Iron and electrum twisted past the cold sea — the frontier outranks gold.	Reach level 65

The level frames unlock from your level alone — there is nothing to claim and nothing to buy. Reaching the level is the whole requirement.

Arena frames

Bought with Laurels at the House of Laurels. The price is the same in every tier — a frame is bought once, so there is no run of duels for the scaling to keep even.

Frame	How to get it
Corona Palmata Gold palm fronds on Tyrian purple — the dress of a triumph, worn as a ring.	2,000 Laurels at the House of Laurels

War frames

These two are not on the level ladder. They are bought with Valor at the Guild Shop, which means the only way to wear one is to have fought in a guild war.

Frame	How to get it
Vexillum Standard Carried at the head of the guild line.	Bought with Valor at the Guild Shop
Corona Castrensis The rampart crown, for the first over the wall.	Bought with Valor at the Guild Shop
Crown of Triumph Awarded on the day the war was won.	Bought with Valor at the Guild Shop

Achievement frames

These unlock from your achievement point total — the whole catalogue counts, not one particular feat.

Frame	How to get it
Corona Civica Oak for the one who saved a citizen — 500 achievement points.	Earn 500 achievement points
Corona Aurea The gold crown of the games — 1,500 achievement points.	Earn 1,500 achievement points

The seam's frame

Bought with tesserae at the Tessera Emporium. Tesserae are struck only by Laborum shifts, so the only way to wear this ring is to have worked for it.

Frame	How to get it
Corona Fabrilis Iron and bronze, hammer and tongs — the crown of the one who made things.	Bought for 1,500 Tesserae at the Tessera Emporium

The patron's arch

The only ring that is held rather than owned: it is worn while a Patron's Seal is warm and sets itself aside when the seal ends. Press another seal and it returns.

Frame	How to get it
Patron's Arch Porphyry and gold for the realm's patrons — held while the seal is warm.	Worn while your Patron's Seal is active

Portraits

Your character's face is chosen when you create the character and can be changed afterwards. The starting faces are yours from the beginning and are not listed here; what follows is everything beyond them.

Portrait	How to get it
Free Blade A hardened human champion of the sand.	150 Aurei
Kobalos A green-skinned trickster of Dionysus.	250 Aurei
Cyclops One-eyed forge-born, sooted in bronze.	250 Aurei
Minotaur The labyrinth’s horned champion.	250 Aurei
Satyr A horned reveller of Faunus.	250 Aurei
Gorgo Serpent-haired and deadly.	250 Aurei
Draconarius Bearer of the dragon standard.	Defeat Ladon, the world boss
Vexillarius The standard-bearer who never yielded the line.	Won with Valor · Guild Shop
Munerarius The giver of games, laurelled in the purple.	Granted with your first Patron's Seal

Two of these cannot be bought at any price. Draconarius is won from a Ladon kill — that page has the exact chance and the effort bar you must clear to be in the draw — and Vexillarius is sold only for Valor at the Guild Shop. Aurei do not open either one.

Cosmetics are stored as flags on your character, not as inventory, which is why they survive everything: they cannot be lost to a full bag, sold by accident or taken in the Arena.
