SPECIAL FEATURES

• Phrik-Threaded Engravings: Ornamental yet functional embroidery woven from phrik-laced fibers; offers minor resistance to energy slicing or close combat shearing.
• Refractive Runes: Inner lining is etched with Sith sigils that emit a faint, ambient glow. Light can be suppressed or activated based on environment.
• Encrypted Hem Weave: Hidden memory thread in the cloak's hem can store encrypted holodata, Sith codes, or scroll-like messages.
• Anti-EMP Lamination: Fully passive design renders the cloak resilient to electromagnetic pulses or ion discharge.
• Mag-Clasp Deployment: Seamless shoulder-to-neckline closure utilizing magnetic threading, invisible to the untrained eye.

STRENGTHS

• Ceremonial Authority with Tactical Merit: Visually imposing, the Nocturne Cloak offers symbolic power and modest defensive value during political trials, state visits, or high-threat negotiations.
• Highly Resistant to EMP/Environmental Effects: Lacks electronics but is woven with insulation layers that shrug off ionization, environmental damage, and basic alchemical probing.

WEAKNESSES

• Not Suitable for Combat: While stylish and moderately protective, this cloak will not hold up in duels or sustained combat environments. It is not armor.
• Highly Recognizable: Its unique aesthetic and runic motifs make it easily traceable to high-value Sith figures and VesperThread clients.
• Poor Sonic/Physical Resistance: The cloak offers minimal defense against concussive force, physical strikes, or acoustic attacks.

DESCRIPTION

The Nocturne Formal Cloak was not designed to be worn by the common warrior or lowborn bureaucrat. It is a statement—crafted in silence, stitched with centuries of Sith heritage, and worn by those who do not speak until others have fallen quiet.

Developed by VesperThread as a prestige garment for Sith dignitaries and select members of Serina Calis's shadow dominion, the cloak serves both ceremonial and functional roles. With its high collar, cascading drape, and angled lines that mimic ancient Sith armor forms, the Nocturne projects an image of ageless command. The cloak can be tailored to drag across polished floors or cut just above the heel for ease of movement—always theatrical, always controlled.

The outer layer is composed of alchemized armorweave, dyed in pigment-absorbing black that consumes light like a void. Decorative phrik-threaded motifs trace the hems and shoulders—stylized sigils that shimmer faintly with significance lost to most, but immediately recognized by acolytes of the Dark Side.

The inner lining carries refractive Sith runes, which may pulse softly with crimson or violet light, depending on environmental activation or wearer preference. A hidden memory weave embedded in the cloak's hem allows for encrypted messages, identity tags, or personal Sith holorecords to be smuggled or preserved with total discretion.

It is often worn during war councils, executions, Sith trials, or high diplomatic functions where power must be seen—but not yet used. The cloak is an echo of the old Sith, wrapped around a new kind of dominion. One whispered in corridors and crowned in silence.
