The Hidapipe of Phantasy Star II is a rare item for this series of video games. This device, based on the musical instrument known as an ocarina, plays a tune that drives away monsters to prevent battles. The shape of the body seems to be based more on a flute than a traditional ocarina in this illustration. Items that forestall enemy encounters like this are common in many RPG series, but the Phantasy Star game series excludes them in most installments. That is a shame, in one aspect. The tune played on the Hidapipe is the Palma exploration music in Phantasy Star, which would have been a nice thing to hear again in later games.
