SinceFinal Fantasy 14’sre-released 8 years ago, Allagan tomestones have been collected by players as currencies and collectible tokens. One fan used their 3D printing skills to recreate all of the tomestones that have shown up inFinal Fantasy 14so far.
Reddit user NotJannet_ was the fan responsible for this undertaking, which included modeling all 26 Allagan tomestones across their three shape variants and many colors. In addition to the 16 tomestones used as endgame currencies through its various patches and expansions, from Philosophy through Revelation, they also created the 10 rare tomestones used to acquire rare weapons from theraids available throughoutFinal Fantasy 14, like the Encrypted Tomestone and Defragmented Tomestone.

Within theworld ofFinal Fantasy 14, Allagan Tomestones are relics from the Allagan Empire, an advanced, ancient society which collapsed after one of Hydaelyn’s many apocalypses. The tomestones themselves function as information storage devices, like something between a phone or tablet and a USB drive. It is no surprise the tomestones act as a currency within the story of the game, as the information gleaned from such an old and technologically-advanced society could come in handy for people with the resources to offer powerful weapons and armor for them.
Considering how prolific the Allagan tomestones are within the world ofFinal Fantasy 14, and the increased access to 3D printing, it is no surprise to see fans of the game recreating the iconic currencies, like otherFinal Fantasyfans have with their favorite games in the franchise. NotJannet_ isn’t the first to do so, but they are the first to create all 26 of the tomestones and display them together. NotJannet_’s collection is comparable to that of Rowena, theFinal Fantasy 14NPC responsible for collecting Allagan tomestones throughout the game.
Unsurprisingly,Final Fantasy 14fans were immediately charmed by NotJanner_’s work. It didn’t take long for fans to inquire if NotJanner_ was planning on selling copies of the tomestones to interested buyers. NotJanner_ does have an Etsy store, where they sell models of some of the most well-known tomestones, including Poetics and Law, plus some of otherFinal Fantasy 14trinkets, like an Alagan node and motherbit, an Aethernet shard, and aGarlean magitek armor key based off of theFinal Fantasy 14mount. NotJanner_ has mentioned interest in selling other kinds ofFinal Fantasy 14paraphernalia, such as tombstone magnets, so fans who appreciate their collection so far should keep a close eye on what else they might make, or if they print the new tomestones coming inEndwalker.
Final Fantasy 14is available now on PC, PS4, and PS5.Endwalkerlaunches on November 23.
