No capes! But...

[Techwright]

Might we get a costume option where the cape does not exist (or is completely invisible) but the brooches are available? 

 

I'm not sure about the double-shoulder brooch arrangement, but I could see several good uses for the single brooch, both centered and off-centered (shoulder).  Several of the brooches have a recognizable look, such as the lightning bolt, rocket, crown, and crescent, and would provide another decorative option on their own without forcing the player to take a cape.

 

Three other options with the suggestion:

1. Have a left-shoulder option as well as a right shoulder.

2. Have an optional neck chain for the centered brooch, so that it appears to be hanging from the neck chain.

3. If the concept is adapted, add additional recognizable shapes to the brooch list  (Eagle or Eagle's head, hammer & sickle, snake, leaf(s), heraldry lion, etc.)

I think several of the single broach options would also work on the belt option of the costume, just hanging in front like the Skull option.

There's something akin to that with a belt buckle over on Champions Online.  Would love to see what you suggest brought to the game.  That said, I was hoping either the removal of a cape or making it invisible would be a fairly simple task for the coding team.  I suspect a belt would be a lot more work.  To be fair, my alternate suggestion of a neck chain might be much more work as well, though the brooch would already be there and in position.

Adding a belt with interchangeable buckles would be difficult, but I'm referring to the skull that's mounted on the costume without a belt. Why just a skull, why not some other symbols/objects?
