This is not a Bikini says the tailor.

Its a "ehm" regulation Orion Top, and armored brief's with a nano molecular locking system (not even the borg can break the encryption on those!). But as General Kuiama of the I.K.V. Dancer (other wise known as Kui) has discovered the Risaian flowers accessories provide a belt that handily replace the typical decorated orion belt (and accessory pack in cluding but not limited to, lock pick set, EPROM Isoloniar chips with burner, code crackers, emergency weapons assemblies, spare lipsticks, nail polish, eye shadow and uther essentials) And alll those blooms make for some more excellent hiding places.. Why Kui has managed to double her normal combat load!

Of course there is an issue. We're thinking is some sort of Risaian idea of a joke...and we are not amused by it. The flowers apparently come in the same colors as the standard KDF uniform color pallette. Shades of red, tan, drab green, navy blue, grey and black.
*sigh* not terribly impressive, but none the less attractive.

Combat wieght: 2.4 Kg
Capabilities: Classified top secret by order of Klingon Fleet Command.

Before folks howl, ONLY female orions can wear this get up, and trust me, the limited color palette truely stinks...I spent an hour and half in the tailor trying to put together a good combo of colors and this is the best I could come up with considering Kui's hight (2m) Build (deliciously generous curves) hair and skin color and the small number of top options availible... Unless you've played KDF you have no idea how limited current costume options are. WHile off duty costumes were opened up for KDF, you still cannot mix duty costume parts with off duty wear. At least we can put something together for non combat situations. Technically Kui is wearing a decorated uniform..

She's ORION! either get over it or go dump one of your fugly toons and make an Orion female if you want a beach uniform (I heard that snicker, this is SERIOUS STUFF HERE, STOP THAT LAUGHING! SERIOUS, REAL SERIOUS!)

SO anyway.. this post is an effort on my part to kill the stupidity flames before they get going. The uniform is not a bug, it is not an oversight, it is not an exploit,cheat, or hack. Cryptic just didn't warn us first. (grin) I like discovering things and as far as I know i was the first KDF Orion female toon to trip over this on Risa.

For the record, The NPC's do have some nice outfits, but its only proper that a player character can at least challenge thier irritatingly smug superior attitude towards fashion!

    Arrons9, when you put on the flower belt accessory it replaces the orion belt and loin cloth...

    Orions Females only and bare leg options only...

    Might be a reason to try out Risa after all, I wasn't really planning to go there for this event.

    *winks* And a good reason to make an Orion female Avatar!

    One of those little benifits of Joining the Klingon Defence Forces. If the federation hadn't been so hung up on thier law and order thing, and respected thier own prime directive the Orions would still be part of the federation!

    All my Orion characters (as well as all my other KDF alts) thank you for giving me a reason to go back to Risa.

    I had planned to get at least one set of flower accents but wasn't in any rush... 'till now! At last I feel like I am properly dressed for the resort!

    Time to celebrate! :D

    Bahahaha. I've never used a bikini costume on my Orion because I hate those big, ugly belt cloths, and also in part due to the silliness of it.

    But now, without the cloths, I'm going to wear this bikini everywhere to spite the people who don't want players to have it, and to remind non-Orion players of what they've been denied for no good reason.

    Best use of 600 favors ever.

    dammit Cryptic...


    now i'm reminded of just how badly the rest of the KDF females, and indeed Romulan and Fed females, are screwed by the many restrictions with the tailor

    both of my KDF toons are ferasan, i'd love to be able to wear an oufit like that, but the best i can do is wear the (wildly overpriced) lobi store warrior skirt and bare chest corset top...oh and those gigantic clunky spiked boots the klingons love so much (you'd think different species would be allowed to wear unique clothing....oh wait Orions and Nausicaans can :confused: ) *sighs*

    i'll just be in the bar drowning my tailor sorrows in Risian liqour :(

    that said the OP does look awesome with the flowers and bikini :)

    well, you can make an Orion!

    Note: the costume pack isn't bound untill you unpack it.. so pick up one.. or two.. or three.. or how ever many up, and hide em away in a bank slots untill you want use 'em... sell' em... or give em away to your favorite game buddy playing an orion female..

    As a KDF player I am having more then a few lul's over some of the griping I've seen in other threads.. That KDF got this, intentionally or not (I personally have no idea, but I am thrilled to see it in game).

    Eventually the studio will toss scanty wear to the blue side.. little the other faction has stay unique for long..*shugs* don't like it, but I'm not an an exec at the corporation thats gets to have a say in it.

    NOT expecting any sort of trend toward more options KDF side.. be to much of a risk of dissapointment. Just going to enjoy what I did get.

    On a very positive note, in game on Risa I've gotten nothing but compliments and "Right On!"'s
    When players aren't being "gimmie now" spolied children its pretty cool, and nice to see.

    Of course, it's not a bikini.
    With the flower necklace it's clearly a trikini.:P

    Not going to look it up, but pretty sure the "garment" was named after the Bikini islanders.. you may heard of them... thier home, Bikini atoll in the Pacific ocean, was used in the testing of early H-Bombs. Depressing thought.

    It was an itty bitty tinny weenie, nutronium plated pink bikini that she wore for the first time that day... *wanders off singing*

    Got this for my Orion as well, doing the dance contest was asked where i got it. Was quite nice to be properly dressed for a beach rather than in uniform.

    Thanks for this!

    I've got one question. Can you combine this "bikini" with the other risian outfit's barefoot option, so can I wear this, without the sandals?

    the other two Risaian costume bits are as far as I know actuall off duty costume bits, so, you won't be able to mix them with a Orion bare top option to get shorts bare feet, and bikini top... though, I could be wrong..

    Orions, with Bikini's .... and allll working toward getting the "'Vettes's"... The devs do indeed have a querky sense of humor that sneaks in sometimes...

    No. The bare feet option only shows up with the Beachcomber shorts, AFAIK.

    The shorts as well as the useless Explorer pant things (which have a tucked into the boot look so it looks utterly stupid with bare feet).
