The Camo Cloak is coated with an absorbent material called Cameoline 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 [[Gaunts_Ghosts#Chief Scout Sergeant Oan Mkoll|Chief Scout Sergeant Oan Mkoll]] can give the wearer near perfect concealment.{{Fn|1}}
Such cloaks are commonly used by the [[Tanith First and Only]], a.k.a. Gaunt's Ghosts. [[Commissar]] [[Ibram Gaunt]] was awarded with one of these by the soldiers of the regiment.{{Fn|1}} They are also used by [[Space Marine Scout]]s{{Fn|4a}}.
