Bandana

The Bandana is an outfit accessory found/worn in Red Dead Redemption.

Description
The Bandana is a black cloth worn across the face that can be used by Marston to conceal his identity. This means that any change in Marston's Honor, positive or negative, is not applied to him. For example, a player trying to be heroic can take a time-out and murder an especially annoying person, or a vile and sinister player can have a change of heart and save someone, without that action undoing their hard-earned good or evil points. It also prevents any rise in Marston's Fame meter, so it's advisable that players remove it before the end of a mission. In addition, taking the bandana off while Wanted causes the Wanted meter to drain faster.

The bandana does not make the player free of consequences; if their crimes are reported, they still incur a Bounty, which they will have to pay off.

It can be equipped or unequipped from the satchel, so the player does not need to return to a safehouse to use it. It is compatible with all of Marston's outfits. When the bandana is equipped, players can't purchase any drinks.

Furthermore, when wearing the bandana in conjunction with the Deadly Assassin outfit, the bandana is slightly raised over the left eye, over the eyepatch.

Even though the bandana is equipped, people will still greet him as "Mr. Marston", when they shouldn't recognize Marston at all.

It is interesting to note that the bandana sometimes doesn't show in some of the cutscenes that Marston features in even though it has been equipped by the player.

Obtaining
The player can buy the bandana for $20 from the general store in Escalera or the tailors' shop in Thieves' Landing. The bandana costs $10 with high honor in Escalera or low enough honor in Thieves' Landing.

 * Sometimes after completing the final story mission (not the final stranger mission) Jack will be wearing the bandana regardless of whether you have purchased it or not. This can be fixed by buying the bandana, equipping it and then unequipping it.
