Hylian Caps

Hylian Caps are hats that are found in several variants corresponding to Enchanted Rings, Enchanted Circlets, Hylian Scout Tunics, Soldier Armor, and Glass Armor. Variants can be found on Hylian Ghosts, with guaranteed caps found with the corresponding tunic.
Caps can be crafted from Enchanted Rings at a Terminan Forge using leather strips and linen wrap. They can also be changed into Enchanted Rings at the Terminan Forge. 
Caps share enchantments with corresponding Enchanted Rings, but do not interact with Hylian armor in the same way as the rings. They can be disenchanted. 
All Hylian Caps are classified as helmets with the Elven material type and are considered Light Armor. They cannot be converted to Heavy Armor.

== Lore ==
Hylian caps were worn by nearly all soldiers and scouts of the Hylian empire. The caps were initially unenchanted, but during the Last Great War of Hyrule, enchantments were weaved into the light mail of the caps, and one ring was designed to be easily removed from the cap and worn on a finger. This was done to allow warriors to adapt their armor to different magical conditions or foes.
== Background and Inspiration ==
The Hylian caps use models by alteredTheBeast for the caps when worn, and Tyen for ground models.
The Hylian caps were included in JKalenad's standalone tunic mod that was later packaged with more of JKalenad's work to form Relics of Hyrule. As such, they are some of the oldest items in the mod.
The Blue Ring Cap was originally named the Sheikah Cap, but was renamed with its tunic counterpart to avoid confusion with the Sheikah Garb.
The Oocca, Eldin, and Faron caps were implemented in version 6.4 with the intention of supporting the mod Elemental Destruction Magic. They would have resisted Wind, Earth, and Water respectively by 30%. JKalenad scrapped his plans for this patch, however, as he did not want to set a precedence of patching Relics of Hyrule for other mods.
The caps have been the subject of much criticism from users of Relics of Hyrule, due to their appearance and interactions with the hair of characters. Many hairstyles clip through the hats, and if used with hair mods, the caps make a character bald. JKalenad implemented the Enchanted Rings and Circlets as alternatives to the hats in response to these criticisms. He also considered adding hoods and helmets as optional replacements for the hats, and occasionally considered removing the hats altogether. JKalenad has often referred to the hats as a "lost cause," and has no plans to improve them.
In 6.6.3, new meshes for the worn Caps were made by Dralkkin, and the ground models were edited to be higher poly and thus smoother. The new caps more closely resemble the shape of Link's cap, as well as resolve the clipping issue for all vanilla hairstyles. The majority of modded hairstyles are incorrectly made, and not properly set up for Skyrim's partition system, meaning they do not cull for use with any non-closed face headwear. A patch for these new caps to give them HDT physics is available on the RoH Community Patch Hub
