The Shemagh (Face Covering Scarf) is a shemagh pulled up over the nose and mouth. It is one of four ways to wear the same cotton cloth. In this form it covers the lower face and the neck.
Its strength is cover for the face. It keeps the neck and face warm and blocks all of the wind. It also filters some of the sickness that comes from rotting corpses. It is light and costs nothing in speed.
The shemagh comes in a black and white pattern and in Green. It is found as a neck scarf in army surplus stores and pawn shops, then pulled up over the face from the inventory. The Tailor is the best occupation for accessories. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The Shemagh (Face Covering Scarf) is worn in the Mask slot. It covers the neck and the head. It keeps in most of the heat there and blocks all of the wind, which suits cold and stormy weather. It stops about one scratch in ten on those parts.
Its key use is around the dead. It cuts the corpse sickness taken near rotting bodies by a quarter. That helps when clearing a house full of bodies.
The Balaclava sits in the same Mask slot. It keeps in all of the heat and blocks some rain, but stops only half as many scratches. The Balaclava also weighs more.
The Mask slot clashes with breathing masks, breathing apparatus, eye masks and full head pieces. A hat can still be worn on top.
The shemagh changes form through its inventory options. Scarf lowers it back to the neck. Cover Head turns it into the Shemagh (Open Face). Cover Head Fully wraps it into the Shemagh (Fully Closed).
Variations
The Shemagh (Face Covering Scarf) comes in 2 versions with the same stats. Only the look changes.

Locations

Notes
- The face cover cuts corpse sickness by a quarter, which helps when dealing with the dead.
- A hat goes on over it, since this form sits in the Mask slot.
- Switching back to the neck scarf is one inventory option away.
- The cloth burns, so a spare shemagh can serve as tinder or fuel for a fire.
