📋 About This Mod
This is a collection of cloaks themed around the game's companions to make them feel just a little more on-brand. They are noticeable effects, especially early in the game, but not strictly overpowered either.
For Lae'zel, the Kithraki Mantle - a cloak that unlocks the Githyanki Parry ability and provides resistance to psychic damage.
For Shadowheart there are two cloaks, one for each phase of her story. The Shadowed Cloak provides a bonus to spell attack while obscured and resistance to radiant damage while the Moonlit Cloak provides a bonus to spell damage while illuminated and resistance to necrotic damage.
For Gale, the Mystral Cloak - unlocking a free spell cast once per rest and a bonus to save against spells.
For Astarion, the NightStalker's Shade - A cloak that allows him to transform into a bat as well as granting advantage to attacks while obscured.
For Wyll, Hell's Champion - A cape which adds fire damage to his melee attacks as well as granting momentum when he does fire damage with spells.
For Karlach, The Hellfire Cloak - providing the immunity to fire damage and fire damage shield she always should have had.
For Halsin, the Wildheart Shroud - Grants advantage to concentration saves and adds poison damage to his attacks while wildshaped.
For Minthara, the Nightwarden's Mantle - Grants immunity to surprise and a bonus to attack targets marked by spells.
And for Tav, The Cloak of the Protagonist - Grants a reroll as a reaction once per rest and advantage on death saves.
The cloaks can be found in a box in the tutorial chest, or the cloak box can be purchased from Aron, Tali, or Danthelon.
There is also a version available that has invisible cloaks for those who do not like the aesthetics of cloaks.
The abilities do not overlap with my origin weapons mod, so both can be used together for even more thematic effects.
