The bandana is a scarf which is rolled and tied around the forehead. If acquired earlier on in the game, the bandana can be used as rather effective headgear, and even combined with eye wear (like sunglasses) to offer slightly more DR. The +1 bonus to Perception can also help the player spot enemies from a further distance. The bandana will also never deteriorate. Once at 100%, it remains at 100% condition throughout the entire game, no matter how long it is worn.
