The Chocatrice cape is the reward for completing the 2008 Easter event. When operated, the player performs an emote in which a giant Easter egg forms around the player then followed by the player bursting out from the top.

If a player loses their chocatrice cape, it can be reclaimed from Diango in Draynor Village for free. Note that after players earned their cape, they could collect another 10 chocolate chunks and earned the bunny hop emote if they did. It can be stored in the Toy Box in the Costume room of a Player-owned house. This is the only cape in free-to-play that allows players to perform a cape emote. The Chocatrice cape is now a discontinued item. Many low level players wear this cape to show how long they have been playing. Though casting Low Level Alchemy can be attempted on the cape any number of times, whether using the Explorer's ring or a normal spell, it is impossible to turn it into gold. Should the player try, a message saying: "You doubt the Easter bunny would be impressed if you turned that to gold."

Glitches

Note that all the glitches below are all currently fixed.

Invisibility Glitch: Occurred when a player performing the cape emote is hit with a snowball. The player would disappear until the emote had finished. This would also appear if an enemy's spell splashed on the user.

Transport Glitch: On RuneScape HD, activating the Chocatrice cape whilst walking sometimes caused the egg to appear in front of the player. When the egg was done forming, the player would disappear temporarily, and then reappear when the egg breaks, as if the egg had actually formed around the player.

Walk out of egg glitch: Another glitch occurred while operating the cape and then clicking on an item to pick it up. The player would walk out of the egg while it continued forming and when the egg breaked. This also caused the egg not to make any sound while it was broken.

Out of Egg Break Glitch: When you operate the cape while walking the egg would appear in front of you and anyone in that area (whether it is a NPC or a real RuneScape player) would appear to be trapped inside the egg while you turned invisible on the space you were in. After that, when the egg shattered, you suddenly became visible beside it and seem to be breaking out of the air, while an easter egg suddenly breaks beside you.

Give Thanks glitch: When a player used the "Give Thanks" emote, just as you turned back into a human, you could operate the Chocatrice cape and an egg would form around you and break without you moving.

See through wall Glitch: If you used the emote, then faced the screen so that there was a wall between your eyesight and the player, part of the wall would disappear, revealing your character.

Cabbage port Glitch: When using the emote, one could click, right after starting it, on the cabbage-port option of the explorer's ring. You would finish the emote, stand still for two seconds and then teleport without the animation.

Trivia

• The cape gave a +2 defence bonus to slash and stab within the first few months, but its bonuses were removed.
