Magic Item Specification

Type of Item: cloak

Cloak of Invisibility

Description: any type of ankle-length, hooded cloak, but tend to be multi-coloured / garish

Powers: Makes wearer and his other possessions within his aura Invisible by using light concentration for up to a maximum of 24 Action Points ("AP") per Caeriad.

Notes:

  1. Only works properly if the wearer's body is fully concealed by the Cloak (e.g. if the hood is not up, wearer's head remains visible).  The hood is effective to make the face Invisible provided it shades the face from a direct light source (Hide in Shadows may be used to ensure this).
  2. For visual purposes only, the effect is as if the wearer were not there.  Light will appear to shine through him.  He does not cast a shadow, but will leave tracks.
  3. Thievish Detect Hiding and Detect Man-to-Man (using Sg) or Truesight Activities will not enable an Invisible Being or object to be seen, as there is no image to be seen.  This is in contrast with Chameleon effects, which blend the target in with its surroundings.  Illusionist Sight Spells (e.g. See Invisible) may enable an Invisible Being or object to be seen, as they override Illusionist Sg effects.
  4. Chameleon and Invisibility effects both apply at once (as they work differently).  This could be useful against e.g. See Invisible.  An Invisible and Chameleoned taker expends Action Points for activities as normal.
  5. The effect ends when wearer ceases to concentrate on being Invisible or when the Caeriadal AP allowance expires.  AP are expended as follows:

Encumbrance: 8 wt pts

Origin / History: normally obtained by Pact with PENTAGNONY, Demon of Invisibility.
