In the SNES version, the hat increases defence by +25 and can be found in the bowels of [[Mt. Zugzwang]] and is dropped by the [[Whackolyte]] at a rate of 1/128. [[Bianca]] and [[Hero's daughter|the girl]] can equip it, along with a handful of monsters.

The hat fortunately appears in all versions of ''VI'', increasing defence by +25 and style by a just +2. It may be donned by [[Milly]], [[Ashlynn]], [[Nevan]], and the slime buddies. The [[Pudgedevil]] and [[Metal king slime]] drop the hat at a rate of 1/256, meaning that even with a whole team of [[thief|thives]] players would only have a 3.125% chance to swipe one. Fortunately, one can be found in a chest hidden away in [[Reaper's Peak]].

It increases {{Defense}} by 25 points, and {{Style}} points by 2. It can be found in a [[treasure chest]] in the [[Cave to Yet Another World]]. It also has a 1/128th chance of being dropped by the [[Hirsute hexer (Dragon Quest VII)|Hirsute hexer]], who appears in the same dungeon. {{Maribel}}, [[Ruff]] and [[Sir Mervyn]] can equip it. It can be sold for 3850 [[gold]] coins.

The cap does not appear in ''IX'', but its effects are replicated by the secret [[Twocus Pocus]] skill a [[Sage]] can use after placing the Sage's Scripture scroll in their inventory.
