A droven cloak is a type of cloak that appears in dNetHack and notdNetHack. It is always made of cloth, and appears as a cobwebbed cloak when unidentified.

The droven cloak is the base item for three quest artifacts: The Web of the Chosen, the Darkweaver's Cloak, and the Cloak of the Consort.

Generation

Several drow monsters generate with droven cloaks:

Deminymphs that are generated with healer kits on the Drow Healer quest are always generated with blue droven cloaks. Deminymphs that are randomly generated outside of the Drow Healer quest or the Lost Cities have an effective 1160 chance of being given a madperson kit with a droven cloak that has an enchantment of +1 to +3 and a 140 chance to be made into an artifact.

Giant spiders and cave lizards have a 120 chance of generating with droven cloaks fitted to their body shape, while large cave lizards have a 11100 chance of generating with fitted droven cloaks.

Description

While worn, a droven cloak grants 0 base AC, 0 DR and MC3. Applying a droven cloak can lay down webs on adjacent squares, which lowers the magic cancellation of the cloak by 1 and will use up the cloak when its MC reaches 0 - this can also be used to 'pick up' existing webs, which removes them and restores the MC of the cloak (up to a maximum of 3).
