I know we have tons of awesome options that allows us to customize our prompts to best fit our PC, but I would like to propose another:
Short description status.
Three possible states.
unhidden, hooded, masked
Advantage: You DON'T FORGET to raise/lower your hood or wear/remove your mask/facewrap/veil as appropriate.
I played a game (the inquisition) briefly where you could write a second description to be used when you were cloaked and hidden. It made playing a crook or heretic a lot easier.
Oh no, you're not changing the sdesc with this idea.
It's simply a prompt option to remind you if you are hooded, masked, or if your sdesc is visible to the room (unhidden).
I for one, and horrible at remember to raise/lower my hood for example.
I think it'd be cool, other than the hidden one. Staff has said they specifically don't want the user to know if their hide attempt worked or not.
