For a weapon, I'd go with a rapier or sabre or something. I always really liked the RDM class and I wish it was in the game, plus fencing was a personal hobby of mine for a few years irl. Or, on the other hand, maybe a two-handed mace to put in with WAR, or like a 1h axe for PLD. Something a little more brutal and medieval than what we're used to, as opposed to the sleek, shiny, stylistic weapons and animations the game is riddled with.
Certainly not a scythe. What am I, a bronze age farmer? That's not even a weapon. An axe that can only stab? And the edge is on the inside? It's super effective! Sorry. Don't mean to call people out, but I've wrote off entire fantasy universes for thinking a scythe would be a cool weapon to give a character. The Grim Reaper never uses the scythe as a weapon. It's a symbol for cutting lives down indiscriminately and apathetically like wheat in a field. Also, the symbolism of spring being the time for birth and winter being when everything dies. Harvest comes right before winter, and I shouldn't have to explain this any further because we should all know what symbols are.
For a prop or a non-weapon piece of gear, it sounds cheesey, but I really wouldn't mind like a backpack/satchel/knapsack. Partly because my character spends a lot of time outside of cities and outposts, but also because I've always dreamed of making a lore appropriate lalafell tribute to Ness from Earthbound.
