Accessorize the heroes of Lost Odyssey

Have you ever played an RPG and wondered why your characters don’t actually put on the Silver Goggles you just bought? In Lost Odyssey, Kaim doesn’t usually wear glasses, but if you equip him with a pair he puts them on. Accessories do more than boost stats and some personal style, they let you learn abilities. Similar to Final Fantasy IX’s skill system accessories are linked to skills. Immortal characters gain SP (skill points) at the end of each battle towards learning the skill. Poor mortal humans cannot master skills like immortals, they are restricted to using skills based on the accessories they equip.
