Badass Cape | comment |
Capes have the obvious effect of making the wearer look larger and more imposing. Thus artists often use them as a way to make characters look capable, powerful, and in charge. Just look at Batman over there. He wouldn't look half as awesome without his cape. The reasons for this are many. The color might provide a fetching counterpoint to the rest of their clothes, or else blend with them to give the wearer a dynamic silhouette. It may make them look even bigger than they really are. In the right conditions, they can wave in the wind and look dramatic and striking. Lack of wind can be accommodated with a Cape Swish. But the main reason for this is that in the days of circuses, the strongmen often wore tights and a cape, thus the association with toughness in characters. The trope was then grandfathered into the present day by Superheroes. This can apply to any character, whether it be a hero, sidekick, villain, and it doesn't even have to be a superhero setting. This can also count if the actual capes have some sort of abilities. Thus the capes themselves are badass. Often overlaps with Superheroes Wear Capes, All-Encompassing Mantle. Does not necessarily overlap with The Cape. May be used as an Improvised Parachute, but contrast Cape Snag. Compare Badass Long Robe, Badass Longcoat, Black Cloak, Scarf of Asskicking, Caped Mecha, Ominous Opera Cape, Pimped-Out Cape. |

Batman: Arkham Asylum. Not only does it look badass, but it also lets you glide, either to cover ground quickly or to kick someone in the face and you can slap someone in the face with it to stun them. Fun fact one developer at Rocksteady spent two years crafting Bats's cape making sure it was fluid as possible and tuning the wind effects to it so it would be extra badass. | |

In Digimon V-Tamer 01, an Omnimon effectively weaponised his cape by throwing it in the face of his opponents, blinding them long enough to utterly thrash them. Dukemon / Gallantmon from Digimon Tamers is the Ultimate/Mega-Level form of Guilmon merged with its Tamer, Takato, naturally it is a powerful force on the side of good. |

Watchmen: Hollis Mason recounts that Dollar Bill's cape got him killed: It was caught in a revolving door when he tried to prevent a bank robbery, making him an easy target for the gun-toting robbers. What makes it even more tragic is that the costume was designed by people sponsoring him for public appeal. Mason speculated that if he had designed it himself he might have realized how bad an idea it was. Mason also considered wearing a cape himself when he first became a masked vigilante but found it got in the way. Oddly, both Captain Metropolis and Hooded Justice wore capes easily twice the length of Dollar Bill's, yet never seemed to suffer any consequences. Just lucky, presumably. The more modern Ozymandias nonetheless wears a cape without apparent problems. However, he is arrogant and grandiloquent enough to like the effect, and skilled enough to avoid problems with it. |

Several superpowered individuals in Worm wear capes (surprisingly few, given that one term for superpowered individuals is "cape"). Most of them are either notably powerful or otherwise "deserving" of the cape (such as Eidolon), but others (including Skidmark) are pointedly not. At one point, Taylor notes that few capes can actually "pull off" wearing a cape. | |

X-Men: The Master of Magnetism, Magneto, rocks an imposing purple/red cape in almost every incarnation. It seems that this is genetic; both of Magneto's magical descendants (His daughters, Scarlet Witch, Polaris and his grandson, Wiccan) rock dark-red cloaks/capes. (Wiccan's is a badass tattered cloak) In an issue of New Mutants where Magneto fought the Avengers, we learn that his cape is laced with metallic fibers that his magnetic powers allowed him to use in order to break Hercules' grip on him. Storm, most of the time. Her capes are usually also attached to her bracelets, to the point where it's practically a definitive piece of her design. Since her flight powers are based on wind, the cape presumably helps provide lift. |

In The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King Aragorn eschews the Badass Longcoat he's been wearing for the whole trilogy for some kingly armor and a long, black-and-red cape. Before that, he spent much of the adventure wearing an elven cloak like the rest of the Fellowship, but the cape on his King of Gondor getup is much more badass. There's also the Men of Rohan, who have this as part of the uniform. |

Dark Souls: Knight Artorias in Dark Souls DLC has the tattered remnants of a blue one when you fight him. He's considered one of the biggest badasses Dark Souls II has a lot of capes, from Benhart and Creighton's grey ones to the ragged white stuff hanging off the Heide Knights to the red cloak of the Drakeblood Knights, but the two that are probably most notable are the dark red cloak on the Drangleic set (since it's found quite early in the game and has really good stats) and the black cape on the King's Set (since Vendrick is so important to the story). Dark Souls III has another plethora of capes, including the Fallen Knight, Sellsword, Black Hand, Drang, and Exile sets, but the biggest roles are played by those of the Abyss Watchers, the first Lord of Cinder you fight (they're a dull purple and, given the Abyss Watchers' job, covered in black Abyssal stains), and the red one sported by Slave Knight Gael (which, in the second phase of his boss fight, is wreathed in blood-coloured fire and deals contact damage). |

Storm, most of the time. Her capes are usually also attached to her bracelets, to the point where it's practically a definitive piece of her design. Since her flight powers are based on wind, the cape presumably helps provide lift. | |

Kamina of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann wears a cape that has an affinity for blowing in the Dramatic Wind. Simon later uses it too. It blows dramatically even in space. Kamina is the embodiment of this trope. A humongous version of said cape was also used by the Super TTGL in The Movie. And by humongous, we mean the biggest damn cape ever conceived of in fiction or otherwise. |

A Practical Guide to Evil: Catherine's "Mantle of the Woe". She first gets the - rather plain looking - black cloak as a gift from her mentor, the Black Knight. The cloak makes her more resistant to magic, to the point that at one point, a spells slides off of her "like water on a duck's back". This is only the beginning - after each victory over a foe, she takes to sewing a stripe of their banner on her cloak, which makes it highly recognizable and intimidating. These banners include a wind - from a fairy noble - and even Diabolist's soul. The cloak is now widely recognised and noted as an artifact in the making. | |

Ruby, of the titular RWBY group, wears a beautiful, insanely long red cape that would be very difficult to walk with in Real Life (to the frustration of many cosplayers.) It's okay, though, because the series' setting runs on Rule of Cool and there's a lot of Dramatic Wind in her trailer to make said cape flap around and look pretty. She even wears it with her school uniform, which nobody comments on. | |

Many characters wear one in Fist of the North Star, but Raoh's take the top spot, as in one occasion it was crucial into saving his life: Rei has launched an attack that would have killed Raoh at the price of exposing himself to a deadly counterattack, and Raoh foiled him by throwing the cape on his face and landing a killing blow while he was distracted. Extra points since Raoh often rides a horse too. | |

Dragon Ball: Piccolo from Z onwards, one of the best examples of this can be found in the first Broly movie, especially when Piccolo's heroic save of Gohan from certain death (at the time) and he looked pretty damn awesome◊. Piccolo's cape is attached to heavy weighted shoulder pads that he uses it for training and takes it off to fight or show it off. Gohan gets one just like it for the Cell Games. Later, in the film "Broly: Second Coming", Krillin wears Piccolo's cape while saving Gohan. In the film "Resurrection 'F'", Piccolo even uses his weighted cape as to defeat a one of Frieza's Soldiers by throwing it to a bunch of them◊ causing the weight to pull the soldiers (who were all flying at the time) down to the ground, while at the same time removing its weight so he could go all out against the remaining dumbstruck soldiers. Arc System Works did an especially good job making Piccolo's cape so badass in Dragon Ball Fighter Z that it fills up half the screen◊ in his intro. Kami and Dende wear capes in their role as Guardian God of Earth (since they are weaker than the Kais, the Gods of Earth probably wear capes to appear more godly). In addition to Piccolo, Kami, and Dende, various Namekians also wear capes (apparently capes are popular fashion on Namek) though their not as badass as Piccolo's. Young Adult Gohan while very silly clearly believes in The Cape as he wears one as his alter ego Great Saiyanman, ditto for Videl as Great Saiyawoman. Garlic Jr in the, you guessed it, Garlic Jr Saga as well as his original appearance in the "Dead Zone" film. Frieza's father King Cold and his henchman Zarbon also wear capes attached to their Battle Armor. King Vegeta in anime filler, flashbacks in some of the films, and Dragon Ball Super's adaption of "Battle of Gods" ("Broly, The Legendary Super Saiyan" & "Battle of Gods"). Just so badass. Prince Vegeta as a child in anime filler and his childhood flashback in "Battle of Gods" (both the film and Dragon Ball Super adaption). Stopped wearing one as an adult (knowing Vegeta he probably thought he was so much of a badass that he didn't need one). Gamma 1 and Gamma 2 from Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero are of the same mold as Great Saiyaman (being created by big superhero nerd Hedo) both have billowing capes. In the Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 DLC we get to see Great Saiyaman team up with the Gammas and kick Cell’s ass with their badass capes dramatically blowing. |

Forest Kingdom: Deconstructed in the spinoff series Hawk & Fisher; the Battle Couple are obliged to wear capes as part of their Watch uniforms; however, Hawk hates his because it gets in the way during fights. He puts up with wearing one for Fisher's sake but seizes any plausible opportunity to "accidentally" abandon or destroy his (smothering fires, ditching it when it's pinned to the wall by a crossbow bolt, etc). A subversion, as going capeless doesn't diminish Hawk's Badass Quotient one bit. | |

Wardens in The Dresden Files have gray cloaks as their uniform, and dear god can they be badass. This is even more cool because they are enchanted so that they never become stained or dirty, including the mention that blood splattered on the cloaks during combat just flows off the fabric. This means that no matter how hard or dirty the fight, a Warden's cloak of office is always recognizable to ensure their authority. |

In Infinity Train: Blossoming Trail, Chloe gains an artifact called "The Cloak of Marchosias and Wepawet" (mostly shortened to the first name) that is a red cloak with a wolf hood. While Chloe was already a Badass Adorable Action Girl for fighting opponents with a pipe, the cape makes her more of a badass because it gives her nifty abilities like casting fire, turning into a wolf, flight and an extra arm with it serpent tail. | |

Homestuck: Eridan Ampora sports a rather badass purple cape, complete with High Collar of Doom, as well as a rather badass scarf. He was introduced shooting a giant white whale with Ahab's Crosshairs while riding a flying seahorse. Exaggerated with Orphaner Dualscar, Eridan's ancestor. Just look at him. Later Dave gets one, after ascending to God Tier. Even he's surprised how protective he is of it. |

Captain Harlock wears a cape. Oh boy, does he ever. It's often very hard to tell what ratio of man to cape he is, but he's definitely all pirate. Badass capes tend to be a vital part of badass captains in Leiji Matsumoto's works. Queen Emeraldas herself also wears one of these as does Captain Bainas from Ozuma. Both in turn are distaff counterparts to Harlock. |

Dark Souls II has a lot of capes, from Benhart and Creighton's grey ones to the ragged white stuff hanging off the Heide Knights to the red cloak of the Drakeblood Knights, but the two that are probably most notable are the dark red cloak on the Drangleic set (since it's found quite early in the game and has really good stats) and the black cape on the King's Set (since Vendrick is so important to the story). | |

New Gods: Mister Miracle has a large green cape. The original MM costume was that of a circus performer, which explains its presence, but when Scott Free took up the mantle, his cape was for more than just looks. It's been an Improvised Parachute and a portable shield and shelter against all sorts of attacks. Its size means that it can be wrapped around the wearer (and maybe another person or two) to provide all-round protection if needed. | |

Robin always wears a cape. So does Red Robin. Nightwing doesn't. The presence of a cape has been given several justifications in canon beyond the theatrics; it contains armor, allows gliding and you can grab someone who's falling from the roof of a train. Humorously when Nightwing took over as Batman for a while, he complained about how impractical the cape is, whining to Alfred that despite lightening it three times, it still felt like he was "wearing a circus tent on his back". Robin (1993): Tim modifies the cape to be longer and black in contrast to his predecessors' waist length yellow capes, and over time develops a way to run electricity through it should it be grabbed and detached so that it clings to whomever tried to nab him with it in addition to using it as a bullet resistant glider. |

In Avengers: Infinity War the Cloak not only protects Strange from Ebony Maw but it follows him to space and in Final Battle it even covers the Infinity Gaunlet, annoying the hell out of Thanos.

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Doctor Strange's Cloak of Levitation is possibly the most literal example out there: Not only does it look cool, but it possesses a semi-consciousness and is actually better in combat than the hero himself. (Particularly the up-close-and-personal type of fighting — fancy a cape wrapped around your head, slamming you into the floor?) It's also the biggest Spotlight Stealer in the film. It may be the only badass cape more badass than its wearer. In Avengers: Infinity War the Cloak not only protects Strange from Ebony Maw but it follows him to space and in Final Battle it even covers the Infinity Gaunlet, annoying the hell out of Thanos. Even when it gets ripped by the Titan, the Cloak of Levitation still works afterward. Earlier, during the Let's You and Him Fight between the Avengers and the Guardians, it takes on Drax... and wins. Mysterio in Spider-Man: Far From Home has a pretty damn fancy cape complete with little lights. He even gets prima donna about it when his henchlady Victoria is ironing the cape, in preparation for a potential meeting with the queen. The capes in Thor were specifically designed with badass billowing in mind, and it shows. Tony Stark, however, is not impressed in The Avengers. Thor's cape is so cool, it inspires Vision to have◊ one in Avengers: Age of Ultron. Hela from Thor: Ragnarok has a particularly silky◊ badass cape. Adam Warlock fittingly as a Flying Brick has a particularly cool one in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, it gets torn from while fighting Drax however and he doesn’t bother getting another one even after becoming a hero for real. |

Later, in a fight, he whips it off and uses it to entangle his opponent's weapon, later grousing that he liked that cape. His friend assures him that they'll find him something even more flashy. His replacement cape has embedded flatscreens, which he uses to display a chorus line of dancing Jansons. |

Getter Robo: Getter-1's Getter Wing ability is a dramatically unfurling red cape that allows it to fly. Buster Shield is an even more dramatic cape that DEFLECTS LASER BEAMS. Armageddon Getter 1 has something closer to this than a Scarf of Asskicking like usual. |

In the Telepath RPG series: At the Psy Academy, a student's cape more or less has the same role as a belt does in martial arts, first students have a red cape, then a blue cape and then a black cape while professors have a white cape. In the first game, your character has just earned their black cape. By the time you reunite in the second game your friends Guy and Anya have theirs. You can also snark at another classmate for still being a blue cape after the four-year Time Skip between chapters 1 and 2. Knights also wear a cape, standard mechanic soldiers wear gray ones, mechanic captains and marksmen wear red ones and the Psy Academy guards wear white ones. In Servants of God the Hero wears a brown cape while Griffin and Ravinale guards wear white ones. |

Batman: Batman wore his cape this way long before it was popular. Robin always wears a cape. So does Red Robin. Nightwing doesn't. The presence of a cape has been given several justifications in canon beyond the theatrics; it contains armor, allows gliding and you can grab someone who's falling from the roof of a train. Humorously when Nightwing took over as Batman for a while, he complained about how impractical the cape is, whining to Alfred that despite lightening it three times, it still felt like he was "wearing a circus tent on his back". Robin (1993): Tim modifies the cape to be longer and black in contrast to his predecessors' waist length yellow capes, and over time develops a way to run electricity through it should it be grabbed and detached so that it clings to whomever tried to nab him with it in addition to using it as a bullet resistant glider. Barbara Gordon -a. k. a. Batgirl- and Helena Wayne -Earth-Two Batman and Catwoman's daughter, a. k. a. Huntress- also wear their capes this way. It's to be expected since Batman trained them. Batman Forever had Batman covering himself with his fire-proofed cape in order to shield himself from the flames of a burning building that Two-Face trapped him in. Only Batman could have pulled this off. Batman's cape is so awesome that it has the ability to change size. (Particularly evident in Batman: The Animated Series or The Batman) When he's investigating for clues inside, the cape comes down to his knees, but when posing on a rooftop dramatically, it grows longer than his whole body. Now that's badass! In one adventure with Arsenal, Batman shielded them from an explosion with his cape -which was made of triple-weave kevlar. Batman also uses the cape to make himself appear more intimidating, which given his Terror Hero style suits him well. Batman's cape serves various utilitarian uses Gliding: Extended into a bat-winged shape to slow his descent while jumping vast distances or high heights. Flame retardant: Robin issue 100 states his capes are nomex fire resistant. Breaks up his form: Thus making a more difficult shape to determine for bad guys to fire at. Catman wears a cape that he claims is enchanted to give its wearer nine lives (though whether that means it lets them reinvent themselves, resurrects them, or heals them from mortal injury (or all three) is not made clear). However, it's never made explicitly clear whether it can actually do this, or whether Catman only believes it can. |

One of its' attacks involves ripping the cape off and throwing it at an enemy to conceal their vision before blowing them away with its' twin hand cannons. The Vysaga also wears one, complete with plenty of dramatic swirling and whatnot. |

RuneScape has a variety of normal capes that every player can wear, but there are some special ones that stand out, like the Fire cape which is made out of lava and has its own animation, and is given to players who beat the second hardest boss in the entire game. Also it has the Skill capes, given to players who max the level in any skill, which has the ability to increase the skill level of the player who operates it to 100 temporarily and come with their own emote. | |

Doctor Strange's Cloak of Levitation is possibly the most literal example out there: Not only does it look cool, but it possesses a semi-consciousness and is actually better in combat than the hero himself. (Particularly the up-close-and-personal type of fighting — fancy a cape wrapped around your head, slamming you into the floor?) It's also the biggest Spotlight Stealer in the film. It may be the only badass cape more badass than its wearer. | |

Pony POV Series: Trixie, as in canon, especially as she's Took a Level in Badass. She also justifies it, as she can use it for trickery. The Crusaders get new versions of their capes during the Rumor's Arc. They were made by Entropy herself to protect them and have several features to that effect. They retain their power after the Rumors are beaten, which provides the Crusaders with extremely effective shields. Since they have Entropy's power when Scootaloo wraps her cape around her hoof and punches Goatcord with it, it makes him Ret-Gone. |

Half the characters from One Piece. Crocodile, Hina, lots of High-up Marines, even Luffy once (on a cover). Although, theoretically they're not capes, just specially-draped coats. Luffy gets a gladiator cape in the coliseum Shanks and his crew all seem to sport Badass Capes. Sogeking. In fact, the cape is why Luffy instantly knows he's a hero. Diamante deserves special mention as his cape is a solid steel sheet, made to wave in the wind thanks to his Devil Fruit power. The entire Vinsmoke Family have badass capes attached to their Raid Suits, though eldest daughter Reiji's cape is more like snazzy butterfly wings◊. Sanji himself gets a badass cape which grows to comic book size◊ one of the openings. |

Man of Steel / Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice / Justice League: Seems to be standard issue for Kryptonians of high rank as Jor-El, Zod and Faora are seen wearing some. And, of course, there's Superman himself, and just to make Supes cape extra snazzy it's all CGI. Zod gets a special mention for his fur cape. And there's Batman's cape, of course. | |

Peter Cannon: Thunderbolt (2019) plays with the trope. Most of the superheroic characters avoid wearing capes (one very short hooded design aside), being pragmatic modern types who would doubtless find them cumbersome. However, Thunderbolt, a grandiloquent jerkass Reality Warper, wears an over-ornate costume including a swirling cape. | |

Utsuho from Touhou Project is a nuclear-powered hell raven that wears a starry night cape over her wings. Fellow Final Boss Byakuren also wears a cape, if a considerably less mind-bending one. Then there's Wriggle, but, as a stage one boss, she's not exactly badass, with the cape merely standing in for her insect wings. From the PC-98 era is Yumemi Okazaki, who wears a black and red cape. Sekibanki wears a red cape and mantle large enough to obscure the tenuous connection between her head and neck. Toyosatomimi no Miko wears one in Touhou Shinkirou ~ Hopeless Masquerade. Touhou Shinpiroku ~ Urban Legend in Limbo introduces Sumireko Usami, whose cloak has runes inscribed on its interior. |

Many Final Fantasy characters love their capes, hero and villain alike. More prominent in the earlier games which took place in medieval settings with Yoshitaka Amano as the designer, once Final Fantasy VII hit and the series shifted to a modern setting designed by Tetsuya Nomura, the characters prefer to use Badass Longcoats. However, capes still appear. Most noticeable in Dissidia Final Fantasy, where every character from Final Fantasy VI and earlier has some sort of cape in at least one of their outfits. The most Badass Cape arguably belongs to Golbez of Final Fantasy IV — it's so large it passes into All-Encompassing Mantle, whirls, flares, and flaps in the air with every movement he makes, and his block and intro animations are Cape Swishes. And for downloadable content, Cloud and Zidane don capes, Cloud's from Kingdom Hearts, Zidane from the finale of his own game. Cloud's Kingdom Hearts cape is so badass it has become an Iconic Outfit. Lightning in Final Fantasy XIII and Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII. Odin also sports one whenever he appears. |

Parodied in The Fairly OddParents!. Dark Laser tries to lure Timmy to the side of evil and one of his arguments is that he gets to wear a cape and that "chicks dig the cape". Laser himself also does look much more menacing with his cape. Don't forget Timmy's hero look from the special "Abra-Catastrophe!" |

The heroes of the Ultra Series don't wear capes as part of their standard outfit with the exception of Ultraman King who is a near omnipotent Physical God, but in scenes showing the Land of Light, the Showa Ultramen are often seen wearing big red-and-silver capes. It's explained in Expanded Universe materials that they're a symbol of status and experience among Ultra warriors. However they still throw them off the moment they go into battle most likely because how impractical they are in combat scenes. | |

A lot of characters in Game of Thrones wear them, including the Kingsguard, the Night's Watch, and a lot of characters from the North. Robb Stark stands out in particular, being a peerless general who wears a magnificent fur-lined cape in almost all of his scenes after his crowning. He even dies wearing a particularly elegant one. Members of the City Watch of King's Landing are known colloquially as "gold cloaks" because of their conspicuous gold cloaks. Roose owns a very dashing fur cloak, complete with a subtle Cape Swish in Season 2. He also fought with his men as can be seen with the blood on his face. However, this is defied by Bronn, who insists a cape slows you down in a fight. The Northmen have even an iconic style of capes and cloaks secured by belts crossing on chest. Nowadays, when you see these X-belts, you immediately think "Game of Thrones!". Daenerys wears a travelling cloak during her time conquering the slave cities and she has several half-cape ensembles once she reaches Westeros. Stannis is frequently seen with one. | |

Spider-Man: Mysterio usually has a purple cape to go with his 'fishbowl' and green outfit, which both help negate the cheesiness of the headgear and let him look more, well, mysterious. He's also got eye-shaped clasps attached to hold it on that can even shoot lasers. Spider-Man 2099 even has a cape with a tattered webbing motif. It's not just for looks - he can glide with it, despite it being maybe three square feet of fabric. |

Often present in leader characters in Warhammer 40,000. Also more than a few slightly odd examples, as many of the factions wear Powered Armor, the standard form requiring a power plant backpack. So most capes are tailored to pin to the shoulders but must have space cut out to allow the backpack to plug into the armors, also constricting the cape down to right about the waist. In some instances, they just pin the cape to the back of their (enormous) pauldrons, avoiding a complexified cut, but leaving the cape hanging a bit low on the back. Capes are just one, but perhaps the most common, of a few unusual uniforms worn over power armor, others include robes, togas, and in one case a lab coat of human leather (worn by a guy so evil and insane that he makes the rest look better in comparison). | |

Child of the Storm has Thor, wearing his classic red cape. Doctor Strange wears the famous Cloak of Levitation which, combined with his Glowing Eyes in his first two onscreen appearances (as himself), adds to his eerie persona. Later, when he dials down the eerie aspect, it just adds to his flair for drama. Wanda Maximoff initially wears one, which billows dramatically during her first on-screen appearance - backlit by a pillar of flame which starts tearing through an army of the undead. Later, like her boyfriend Harry Dresden, she takes up the Badass Longcoat, to the point where the Cloak of Levitation refashions itself into a red Badass Longcoat when she inherits it with the position of Sorcerer Supreme. In the sequel, Clark eventually and inevitably ends up in his classic caped outfit - though the cape was originally a conjured blanket after, for various reasons, he ended up naked. |

In Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Reinhard starts wearing one when promoted to the rank of fleet admiral, as it's part of their outfit both during the Goldenbaum Dinasty and the change of uniforms at the onset of Reinhard's Goldenlöwe Dynasty. Also, Galactic Empire founder Rudolph the Great started wearing one after becoming emperor, with some emperors imitating him and Reinhard wearing his cape in his style during his tenure as fleet admiral Foreshadowing his eventual take-over. | |

Mobile Suit Crossbone Gundam features Gundam-sized capes that provide two practical purposes; stealth [the capes are black, most of the series takes place in space] and a special coating that lets them absorb a few beam hits before being destroyed, sort of like extra ablative armour. | |

Ezio in Assassin's Creed 2 has a cape that actually does something - it decreases his notoriety so he doesn't get in near as much trouble with the law. Specifically, there is the Plain Cape which is just for looks (the default cape, and completely plain as the name says); the Medici Cape which sets infamy to 0 (guards still react to suspicious behavior, but Ezio's infamy will never go up) when in Florence or Tuscany by identifying him as an ally of the Medici family (even when Savonarola is in control); and the Venetian cape which does the same for Venice and Romagna by showing his alliance with Agostino Barbarigo. The first cape is obtained along with the rest of the Assassin equipment while the other two are obtained during the story. The Carnevale outfit comes with a cape and mask. Unfortunately, it is only worn during the Carnevale sequence of the game. Also, being the most visually elaborate cape, it does absolutely nothing. One "secret" cape is the Auditore Cape, obtained after giving Maria 100 feathers scattered about Italy. It's also the least useful cape in the game, actually setting infamy to maximum in all cities. On a more practical note, all capes help to conceal some of Ezio's weaponry when he's walking in public, specifically the hidden blade, which has a prominent and visible Assassin symbol on the wristguard despite being a "hidden" weapon. |

Tuxedo Mask from Sailor Moon wears an awesome cape◊, no wonder he's been making the Sailor Scouts weak at knees since 1991. His armored Prince Endymion outfit also keeps a cape (though not quite as wide as the Tuxedo Mask cape). Kunzite is the only one of the Four Kings to wear a cape. It's never remarked upon, but it looks cool. All four Kings wear them in their "Endymion's Guardians" incarnations in the manga. |

Doctor Strange: The eponymous surgeon and Master of the Mystic Arts possesses his Cloak of Levitation, a red, gold-trimmed cape that flows down past his knees and allows him to fly. It has defense applications, as seen on occasions where it shielded him from mystical or mundane attacks. It can also be controlled by Strange telepathically to act as another pair of hands, occasionally restraining or distracting adversaries. Though not as obviously sentient as its Live Action counterpart, the Cloak has occasionally demonstrated some levels of free will, at least once hiding and getting Strange to chase after it as a game. | |

Most noticeable in Dissidia Final Fantasy, where every character from Final Fantasy VI and earlier has some sort of cape in at least one of their outfits. The most Badass Cape arguably belongs to Golbez of Final Fantasy IV — it's so large it passes into All-Encompassing Mantle, whirls, flares, and flaps in the air with every movement he makes, and his block and intro animations are Cape Swishes. And for downloadable content, Cloud and Zidane don capes, Cloud's from Kingdom Hearts, Zidane from the finale of his own game. Cloud's Kingdom Hearts cape is so badass it has become an Iconic Outfit. |

Nearly every tier 3 promoted character in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn have capes. The ones that don't have capes have long flowing robes or coats, both of which behave like capes anyway. | |

Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind has master swordsman Lord Yupa whose flowing cape shifts position with each sword stroke; when battling three attackers, the cape hangs from his neck behind him but at the deathstroke, it wraps about his body ala the Shadow! Whoa! | |

Invoked in Helldivers with the titular Space Marines, who receive a cape as part of their uniform after completing their training, which only 21.3% of trainees survive. Though it's likely for propaganda purposes as in practice caped Helldivers still die in droves. | |
