The Tarp Hat is a simple brimmed hat cut from a piece of tarp and held together with Duct Tape. It is a rain hat first. It keeps water off the head and adds a touch of warmth.
Its main strength is that it keeps rain off the head fully and costs only scraps to make. Its main cost is that it falls off easily when the wearer is hit or knocked down. It is never found as loot and comes only from the Make Tarp Hat recipe. The Tailor is the best occupation for accessories. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The Tarp Hat adds only a little warmth and blocks only a little wind. Its real job is keeping rain off the head, and it does that completely. It suits wet days in mild weather.
It is worn for the weather rather than for a fight. The hat is loose. A hit or a fall knocks it off most of the time, so it may need picking up after a scuffle.
The Hide Hat is the closest piece. It has the same warmth, wind cover and loose fit, but it lets rain through.
The Tarp Hat takes the Hat slot. It cannot be worn with hooded jackets, hooded sweaters, full head pieces or a full suit with a hood.
Tailoring
The Tarp Hat is immune to holes, so it never needs patching.
