The Tarp Apron is a rough apron cut from tarp pieces and held with duct tape. It is crafted clothing worn over the front of the body. It sits in the torso outer layer slot and covers the torso and thighs.

Its main strength is that it keeps rain off the front of the body completely. It also turns away a few scratches. Its main cost is some discomfort, since tarp is stiff to wear. Survivors make it by hand from cheap supplies. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.

Wearing


The apron sheds all rain on the torso and thighs. That makes it useful for outdoor work in wet weather. Warmth comes from the clothes worn under it. It turns away about one scratch in ten on the parts it covers.

The Garbage Bag Apron also keeps out all rain but stops only half as many scratches. The Leather Apron and the Hide Apron stop more bites and scratches, but they let rain through. The apron is somewhat uncomfortable to wear. It fills the torso outer layer slot. It cannot be worn with a jacket, a suit jacket, a vest, a bulletproof vest, a bathrobe or a full body suit.

Notes


  • The apron keeps the front of the body dry in rain.
  • It blocks jackets, so it suits work around a base more than travel.
