The Tarp Headsack is a sack of tarp pulled over the whole head. It covers the face and head like a hood with eye holes. It keeps the head very warm and completely dry.
Its main strength is warmth and full rain cover for the whole head. Its main cost is that it halves how far the wearer can see and dulls hearing. It is never found as loot. It is made from a Tarp Piece and Duct Tape, or cut from a Tarp Sack. The Tailor is the best occupation for accessories. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The Tarp Headsack keeps the head very warm and blocks most wind. It shuts out rain completely. It suits a cold, wet night more than a trip through town.
It stops about one scratch in ten on the head. It stays on well, so a hit rarely knocks it off.
The cost is heavy. It cuts the wearer's vision in half and lowers hearing by 15 percent. It is also slightly uncomfortable to wear.
The other headsacks make a close comparison. The Burlap Headsack and the Hide Headsack give the same warmth and scratch cover but let some rain through. The Hide Headsack is also more comfortable. The Garbage Bag Headsack keeps rain out as well but stops only half as many scratches.
It takes the Full Head slot. That blocks hats, masks, glasses, eye pieces, breathing masks, hooded jackets and full suits with a hood.
Tailoring
The Tarp Headsack can get holes. It is also fire tinder and fuel, so a spare one can start a fire.
