Little late to the thread, but I'm curious. I feel like I made a useful item, but it may be considered too plot related, or just too normal, with not enough shine.
Everyman’s Cloak
Aura faint transmutation; CL 2nd
Slot shoulders; Price 4,000 gp; Weight 1 lb.
Description
This very plain cloak appears far from new, though it’s not so old that it’s wear draws the eye or one’s curiosity. In fact, most would hardly make note of the cloak at all.
When worn with the hood up, this cloak makes the individual entirely common and uninteresting. The individual is still seen, but given very little importance. This allows the individual to make stealth checks without the need of cover or concealment. It does not protect against magical detection. The individual may end the effect by lowering the cloak’s hood.
The cloak is notorious among the young and devious members of the ruling class who wish to travel without retinue.
