Historical Background

Pluto, in Roman mythology, was the god of the underworld, the dead, and often associated with metals and jewels hidden in the dark places under the earth. It makes sense, therefore, to name the High Quality Dark Staff in honor of Pluto. The Apollyon NM Pluto shares a name with this staff in FFXI and additional information can be found there. The Greek counterpart of Pluto is Hades. Although very similar it has been noted that the Romans viewed Pluto as the god of a physical underworld and the Greeks saw Hades as the god of a more spiritual underworld. Extensive informatin concerning Hades can be found on the Hades page for which the Hades Earring, Hades Sainti and Hades Ring are named.
