Capes

**Capes** are Cosmetics that represent a Sky Kid's ability to fly, and are the most visible piece of clothing worn by the player. The current Cape is selected in the second Outfit Shrine from the right. The Cape you wear does not affect your flying ability.

## Cape Energy

The back of the player's Cape has a line of symbols showing their current Cape energy. In addition, any time the player is recharging, the entire Cape undergoes a color-change animation. This allows players to see each other energy levels, for example to know when a friend needs to be recharged. The Cape symbols are not, however, a direct indication of a player's experience because there are ways to lose Cape wedges.

On most Capes, the symbols are stars/diamonds, but specialty Capes may have season-specific or event-specific symbols. The number of symbols (including the outlines/frames) matches the player's total number of wedges. In other words, the 6th-10th Cape wedges are each represented by an outline around the 1st-5th diamond. The 11th and 12th wedges (the current maximum) are a second outline around the top two symbols. These symbols glow white if the corresponding Cape wedge is charged. They are dark if you have used up your energy.

## Cape Color Guide

The colors of the Capes change slightly depending on the current brightness. The below photos were captured at Home during a sunset. All of the colors lighten a bit in bright daylight. The colors also change when the Cape is draining (e.g., if you stand in the rain in Forest). You can check the effects of different lightings on the Capes in the chart below.

## Tier 2 Capes

All Regular Spirit Capes have two levels (Tiers) of Cape. The Tier 2 Capes are the same overall color as the corresponding Tier 1 versions, but have a secondary accent color. They always cost three times as much as the Tier 1 Capes.

The Tier 2 Capes are intended to be bonus content for long-time players. They are always unlocked by a second Wing Buff that requires a large number of Ascended Candles. Neither the second Wing Buff nor the Tier 2 Cape need to be purchased as part of completing a Realm's Constellation.

## Special Capes

In general, the only effect of changing your Cape is changing the visual appearance of your Cape. However, there are some Capes with special functions.

* The Beta Cape and Founder's Cape gives players access to the Secret Area.
* The Nintendo Blue and Red Capes gives players access to the Nintendo Area.
* The Little Prince Asteroid Jacket gives players access to the Dreams of A Little Friend area.
* The Wings of AURORA gives players access to the Aurora Concert.
* The Revival Ultimate Cape creates a rainbow light effect when flying through the air.

## Available Capes

This table lists all the Capes that have ever been available in Sky; only a small subset of them are available for purchase at any given time. The default order is icon order, as used in the in-game Outfit Shrine. The table sort order can be changed by clicking on the header of any column. The color column lists the dominant color of each Cape to make it easier to find Capes based on their color.

## Trivia

* In Sky: Light Awaits, the Capes were much more detailed. However, they were simplified due to performance issues.
