{{Flavour|A length of stylish fabric. At its creation, enchantments were woven into it, and as such it cannot accept further enchantment.}}
A '''scarf''' is a somewhat uncommon magical piece of [[armour]] that occupies the [[cloak]] slot. Unlike cloaks, they do not provide any [[AC]] and cannot benefit from [[scrolls of enchant armour]].

Scarves will always spawn with an [[ego]], and can attain unique egos not found on regular cloaks.

==Egos==
Scarves can appear with the following [[ego]]s:
*[[Repulsion]] - provides +15 [[EV]] against projectile attacks
*[[Resistance (ego)|Resistance]] - provides '''rF+''' and '''rC+'''.
*[[Invisibility (ego)|Invisibility]] - can be evoked to become invisible in exchange for HP [[drain]].
*[[Harm]] - increases damage dealt by 30% and damage received by 20%.
*[[Shadows]] - reduces [[LOS]] by 1 tile.

[[Randart]] scarves will always spawn with these egos, too.

==Strategy==
While providing no AC on their own, scarves appear with unique and useful enchantments that may provide situational benefits. If your character has fairly high [[AC]] already, it may be worth the sacrifice to provide multiple resistances or a means of repelling missiles.

==History==
*Prior to [[0.30]], scarves couldn't appear as [[randart]]s.
*In [[0.26]], the [[shadows]] ego was added.
*Prior to [[0.25]], scarves could have the [[Cloud immunity]] and [[Spirit shield]] egos instead of [[Invisibility (ego)|Invisibility]] and [[Harm]].
*Prior to [[0.21]], scarves could appear as randarts. Randart scarves in 0.20 often spawned with cloak egos (instead of scarf-exclusive egos), essentially making them the same as a cloak.
*Scarves were added in [[0.20]].
