Would an SR Davy Crocket wear a cap made from a novopossum?

(Hope I got the name right... not being American, I don't follow their
mythology all that closely (Just because he was real doesn't mean he was
mythical. Ned Kelly was pretty mythical, too))

Close ... it should be from a Bandit (Awakened Racoon), as it was 'coon skin
caps that were the rage here in the USA a very long time ago.

You know, this could be some sort of fetish geas for a Physad...who bases his
way of doing things on Crockett's exploits...his powers don't work without his
hat....
Could get whole runs going around this...maybe a bunch of go-gangers think the
hat really is magic and try to steal it.

Actually it was racoon ("coon skin" ) of course rather he actually wore
such as thing is debatable. I belive coonskin was a common everymans hat
in the middle of the last century. Remember Crocket was also a politician.
