A spirit-cape is a cloak which is capable of repelling ghosts from the wearer. It is a cloak, with a hood. The material on the outside of the cape is made of feathers of a certain bird. The inside of the cape is covered in linked silver, which is a material commonly known to drive away spirits. Shamans would use the capes to enter structures containing objects (likely Sources) of their ancestors to safely speak with them.

Uses[]

Winkman Market[]

When Lucy Carlyle and Anthony Lockwood were discovered infiltrating the black market, they were trapped between encountering a ghost, and Winkman's forces. Using the spirit-capes, they were not only able to move past one ghost, but enter a ruined cart filler with many Visitors, and pass through unscathed as the capes kept the spirits at bay.

The Rotwell Incident[]

When Lucy and Lockwood were at the Rotwell Institute facility near Albury Castle, they found themselves on the Other Side. The environment was naturally unbearable cold, but the spirit-capes the two agents wore protected them, holding back the cold. As the two were fleeing back to the gate, Lucy's cape got caught on thorns, destroying it, exposing her to the unbearable chill of the Other Side, until Lockwood shared his cape and the two continued their journey until they reached their location, escaping back to their world.
