- "This is the Magic Cape! You are invisible when you wear it! Watch your Magic Meter!"
- — In-game description
The Magic Cape is an item from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. It is hidden in an underground chamber accessed by moving a headstone in the Graveyard. When it is worn, Link becomes invisible; however, his shadow is still visible to the player. While invisible, Link can slip past guards unnoticed. He can also safely walk across spikes or other perilous areas. Wearing the cape drains his Magic Meter, so caution must be exercised while using it. The Magic Cape, though useful, is not needed to complete the game.
Obtaining[]
The gravestone covering the cavern containing the Magic Cape is located in the extreme northeast part of the graveyard next to the Sanctuary.
Only by going to the graveyard in the Dark World, can Link reach the area by dashing into a pile of small stones and using his sword to slice the small flower to the left of the area. Once Link is inside the area where the gravestone is in the Dark World, he can use his Magic Mirror to return to the Light World, where he will be inside the area and will be able to dash into the gravestone. Be careful not to warp while standing behind the pile of rocks as this will cause Link to become trapped in the area around the gravestone once it has been opened. Stand only to the right of the pile of rocks when warping to the Light World.
