Ebisu Card

==Statistics==
==Other Uses==
==How to Obtain==
===Special Event===
*Happy New Year
*Starlight Celebration
===Historical Background===
During the New Year Rivalry Event (for New Years 2005), there were 7 Rare/Ex Tenshodo trading cards that could be obtained by checking the Overturned Soil. They were: Benten Card, Bishamon Card, Daikoku Card, Ebisu Card, Fukurokuju Card, Hotei Card, Jurojin Card. These cards are all named after the Seven Lucky Gods/Seven Fortune Gods (Shichifukujin) from Japanese folklore. It should be noted, some of these are imports from India and China. Daikokuten, Bishamonten, and Benzaiten were imported and translated from India, while Hotei, Jurojin, and Fukurokuju were imported and translated from China. Ebisu is the only one indigenous to Japan. Each of the Seven Lucky Gods has a traditional feature or group they are attributed to. They were often depicted sailing in the Takarabune (the "Phantom Treasure Ship"). According to tradition, this ship would sail into towns on New Years Day and give amazing gifts to people worthy of receiving them. In Japan, children are given red envelopes with the Takarabune depicted on it containing money.
Ebisu was the god of fishermen, working people, fortune, and commerce. He is often seen holding a fishing rod and a giant fish. FFXI has an Ebisu Fishing Rod item.

Encumberance

category:Status Effects__NOTOC__
== Description ==
Encumberance is a harmful status effect that blocks changing certain equipped gear for a period of time. Most variants also remove whatever is in the affected slots, but some simply block changing what's already equipped. Can still cast spells, use Job Abilities and attack.
Does not seem to actually remove the gear anymore. It will remain equipped but all stats and effects from your gear is nullified, meaning that effectively you're unequipped, however when the effect wears you do not have to reequip your gear manually.
Differs from the effect inflicted by Pathos (Salvage) in that it is not removed by using "Cells" to unlock each of the 16 equipment slots, and it is inflicted by monsters.
== How to remove the effect ==
*Wears off after a brief period of time.
== How the effect is inflicted/gained ==
=== Monster Abilities ===
*Qiqirn - Strap Cutter
*Slugs - Fuscous Ooze, Mucilaginous Ooze
*Pixies - Norn Arrows
*Iron Giants - Ballistic Kick
== Historical Background ==
Encumberment / Encumberance is a word that means burdened (either with a heavy weight or something metaphorical, like obligations or responsibilities) or it means having one’s performance or ability to act impeded or hindered in some way.

Entity

.Internally, everything that is not part of the background is considered an entity. There are two types of entities: NPCs and battle entities.
== NPC ==
An NPC is any entity that does not participate in combat. The most obvious example is the various NPC characters (e.g., in cities) that you can talk to.
The internal definition of "NPC", however, is not limited to actual NPC characters. Anything that can be interacted with is considered to be an NPC by the game. This includes inanimate objects like doors, home point crystals and even ???s. NPC names appear in light green when targeted.
Not all NPCs can be interacted with or even targeted. For instance, tree decorations that appear in cities during the Starlight event are actually NPCs. A rule of thumb is that anything that does not show up immediately (i.e., takes a few seconds to load) when you zone into an area or log in is an NPC.
While some NPCs can move, they can never engage in combat and has no HP bar.
== Battle Entity ==
A battle entity is any entity that can participate in combat. They are split into two main categories: Players and Mobile Objects (aka Mobs). Note that in this context, a mob is not necessarily a monster, but rather refers to any entity that can participate in combat and is not a player.
=== Allegiance ===
All battle entities have an internal "allegiance" attribute. Note that this is (usually) unrelated to your national allegiance. The allegiance determines whether you can engage in battle against the entity. Any battle entity whose allegiance is the same as yours (e.g. other players) is considered an ally and cannot attack you or be attacked by you. Enhancing Magic can generally only be cast on allies. Any battle entity whose allegiance is different than yours is treated as a foe and can fight against you.
The allegiance attribute will have one of the following values:
==== Player ====
Usually, all players have the player allegiance. However, there are cases there might be cases where mobs will also have the player allegiance:
* Players' Pets - This includes summons, Charmed monsters, automatons and Adventuring Fellows.
* Trusts - These are not treated as pets, but rather as their own category.
* NPC characters that sometimes participate in combat by your side - A good example is the last mission of the nation storyline.
==== Monster ====
The main foes in the game. Entities with the monster allegiance include:
* Actual monsters.
* Pets of monsters (in the case of summoner, dragoon, beastmaster and puppeteer type monsters).
* Players that are charmed by monsters.
==== San d'Oria, Bastok, Windurst ====
These are only used in Ballista. Outside PvP, your allegiance will be "player", regardless of your national allegiance.
During Ballista, your allegiance will be equal to your national allegiance. Internally, the game can allow this to be a different value, however in practice this is not possible, since players can't be charmed by other players.
==== Wyverns, Griffons ====
These are only used in Brenner. Used to determine which teams players belong to.
