Camo-cloaks are hooded cloaks composed of a mesh backing, woven with thousands of ribbons of colour shifting and light-absorbing material,[3] weaved for its durability and ability to help hide the wearer.
Overview
A camo cloak is coated with an absorbent material called Cameleoline, which takes on the colouration of the surroundings, giving the wearer a great deal of individual concealment and, when used by elite stealth experts such as Chief Scout Sergeant Oan Mkoll, can give the wearer near perfect concealment.[1]
Such cloaks are commonly used by the Tanith First and Only. Commissar Ibram Gaunt was awarded one of these by the soldiers of the regiment.[1] They are also used by Space Marine Scouts.[4] On the world Pavonis, camo-cloaks saved Sergeant Learchus and his Scout Squad from being discovered by T'au patrols.[2] They are also favoured by Deathwatch sharpshooters[3] and Vanguard Space Marines.[5]
Eldar Rangers also utilize their own version of Camo-cloaks.[6]
