The Tricorn Hat is Elliott's contribution to the Desert Festival, and it costs a hundred Calico Eggs at his stall. Which villagers run stalls changes from day to day, so the hat is never a certainty in a given year: Elliott has to be trading, and the festival only lasts three days in the middle of Spring. The shape is a naval officer's, with the brim pinned up on three sides, which suits the valley's resident sea poet rather neatly. Calico Eggs expire with the festival, so the whole price has to be earned inside those three days.
Location
Getting to the festival takes a working bus, which means finishing the Vault bundles at the Community Center or paying Joja for the repair, so most saves meet this hat in their second year at the earliest. The gates open mid morning each day.
Calico Eggs come from several places, and the critter races are the engine. Bets can be placed over and over through the day, a winning one pays out twenty eggs, and the racing carries on until late in the evening. A shady man beside the Oasis will quietly nobble one of the runners in exchange for a single egg, which tilts the odds in a farmer's favour. Away from the track, Willy sets fishing challenges and the Adventurer's Guild sets combat ones out in the Skull Cavern, both paying in eggs. A scholar standing above the Calico Egg Merchant hands over fifty eggs for answering his questions correctly, once per year, and the questions do not change. The trash can beside that merchant can be searched for eggs on each day of the festival.
A hundred eggs is therefore one good run at the races rather than a grind. Elliott will sell several hats in a single day, which is useful on a shared farm or for dressing mannequins, though one is enough for most people.
Effect
The hat is a dark three cornered affair with trim along the folded edges, worn square on the head. It carries no bonus of any kind, because the head slot in this game only changes the picture. The silhouette is strong enough to read from across a field, and it goes best with coats and anything nautical. On a farm it looks like a costume, which is exactly why it turns up in so many seaside outfits.
Notes
Nothing carries over. Calico Eggs disappear from the backpack and from chests the moment the festival ends, and they do not return the following year, so spending every last egg before leaving on the final day is the only sensible policy. Elliott's stall also carries his pencil, so a visit on his day is worth making for its own sake. Sandy's shop stays shut across the three days, since she is out at the festival helping Emily with the makeovers.
