Emblazoned upon the white cloth of this cloak is an azure shield with two crossed black swords in front of it.

If you are a marshal, a rearguard’s cape provides you with a potent ability whenever you and your allies are outnumbered. If the number of visible, active enemies within 60 feet of you exceeds the number of your visible, active allies (including yourself) within 60 feet, you can activate this cape. While it is active, the bonus granted by your minor and major auras improves by 2.
This benefit lasts for 10 rounds or until you and your allies are no longer outnumbered. This ability functions once per day.
