I decided to make the Ranger Cloak as part five of the project. The reason I decided on the cloak was for its symbolic nature. My theme revolved around the main character's development and the loneliness that he must accept as part of his profession. He must remain detached from others in order to protect them. The Ranger's cloak is crucial in keeping him hidden, even when in plain sight. It also provides an aura of mystery and fear to others that keeps them from getting to close to Rangers. Rangers are surrounded by superstition, wild stories and often seen as magical beings. The cloak ties this project together.
