5 years ago There's a bauble slot for 'body' equipment, which is where capes from Botania go. If this is implemented as a bauble, it should go there.
As an aside, I really like how some mods have you able to apply items as upgrades to any armor, like middle gems from The Betweenlands, radiation plating from Nuclearcraft, or attached jetpacks from IC2. Related tangent, I always wondered why Tough As Nails insisted on crippling you with slime and wool armor, when the reasonable thing IRL for improving clothing in cold areas was to line it with fleece, which could be done in a similar fashion to middle gems. Now the point, I'd like if the 'golden fleece' were added as such an armor upgrade (though possibly just to one piece of the armor, like the jetpack.)
There are Greek myths about a Cyclops and a Golden Ram. I was thinking that maybe in the Cyclops layer, you could have a Golden ram in the pen, in which the cyclops guards.
I was thinking again that maybe you could craft a special item to carefully shear the golden ram for the golden fleece. The fleece could serve as some kind of buff like strength or speed? In the myths, it had healing powers, so perhaps it could give regeneration.
It could be equipped as a chest plate and made to look like a cape, or (I don't know if this is more sophisticated, I assume it is) you could make the mod work with baubles and use the fleece for the amulet slot, and the texture would be a cape as well.
