Cloak of Blending
     This is a second variety of the standard Cloak of Blending, and
was created by a mage named Oster.  In fact, in every cloak of this
variety is a lable with his name on it.  On the inside right edge
of the cloak are three buttons, one red, one blue, and one yellow.
If they are pressed while the cloak is not being worn, nothing 
will happen, but if any of the buttons are pressed while the cloak
is being worn, a blade barrier appears in the neck of the cloak
and the wearer is Osterized.  Needless to say, the wearer is dead,
no save.

Level Recommendation:
      Any who deserve death.  This is great for the not particularly
intelligent players who go insane when they find a magic item and
have to have it for themselves.  Especially the types who grab
items and try them out before anyone else gets a chance.
