The Born in Chaos Armor and Hats group is the armour and head items added by the Born in Chaos mod. It has two parts: the Nightmare Mantle of the Night set, a full armour set that is strongest in dark places, and the Killer Rabbit Ears, a helmet that grants movement bonuses. The set's bonuses depend on darkness, so it is most useful in the horror biomes and structures where the pack's nights are dangerous.
Obtaining
The Nightmare Mantle pieces are made by hand from Dark Metal and Monster Skin. The Killer Rabbit Ears are not craftable; they are found as chest loot in the Clown Caravan structures, which are placed closer together in Fear Nightfall than in the original mod.

Usage
Nightmare Mantle of the Night
The Nightmare Mantle is an armour set with four pieces. Its base armour material gives 4 defence on the helmet, 7 on the chestplate, 6 on the leggings and 2 on the boots, with 1 armour toughness and 20 enchantability. Every piece is fire resistant and can be enchanted.
The set has three effects, which apply separately:
- Darkness movement (helmet): while the wearer stands on a block where the light level is 4 or lower, they gain the hidden Unity with Darkness effect. This effect adds a 22% bonus to movement speed and is refreshed every tick while the player stays in the dark. Sprinting in the dark also produces dark smoke particles.
- Dark-magic bonus: the item tooltip says it increases the effectiveness of dark magic weapons and items. The size of this bonus is not stated in the item's code, so no figure is given here.
- Full-set resistance: when all four pieces are worn and the wearer has the Magic Depletion effect, they receive Resistance II for 30 ticks, refreshed each tick. Wearing the full set for the first time also grants the Unity with Darkness advancement.
Killer Rabbit Ears
The Killer Rabbit Ears are a helmet with 2 defence and no toughness or knockback resistance. Their repair material is Rabbit Hide. While worn, they give Jump Boost II and Speed I, each refreshed every tick (10-tick duration). They are not part of any set, and the Born in Chaos armour tags count them as head armour, so armour display mods treat them as standard helmets.
