Apologies. I could have laid out a, "what if" scenario to encourage more discussion, but I felt my comment demonstrated how people can internalize written texts.

I took too heavily towards the "OP" side of your comment, and failed to respect the fact that you point out we have limited choices because feather cape is the current BiS back item. To that end, I fully agree. So let me blather about that instead.

End game problem in many games, people exclusively use the BiS, making us all wish we could customize our character appearance to be any flavor of different from everyone else.

Personally, I think the feathers on any armor look gaudy. Like.. Look at me, the Viking Diva from 1920's ready to go flapping.

I am not a fan of a wolf head attached to a cloak, either. Not because I love animals, but just aesthetics. I think the feathery top of the lox cloak looks pretty bad too. I actually don't want dog fur and feathers on my character.. although I respect other's choices and recognize the significance of the wolf and raven.

I would love to be able to use a nice looking Linen Cape, maybe lined with feather fall. That's one of several reasons why I play modded ;)

Been using feather fall items for over a year already.

Thanks for clarifying, Angrybeard! I agree that it would be nice to have any other choice for feather fall in the vanilla (un-modded) game. Maybe there will be in the future.
