The Garama are a distinction important to capes operating in the Indian sub-continent.

Modus operandi[]

The Garama specifically are the "Hot" capes. In India, capes are further divided not just between Hero and Villain but also between dark, depressing, and violent "Cold" capes that the general public is intentionally unaware of. The Garama are photogenic, gregarious, and engaging to the public.[1] These "cape celebrities" were ineffective against the Endbringer when he came to New Delhi.[2]

Again, they are not a cohesive group, but a descriptive category whole teams of opposing heroes and villains can be sorted.

He had to raise his voice to be heard over the movement of the craft. “They term their capes ‘hot’ and ‘cold’, with very strict rules on who falls into a category. Walk between the two groups, you get the worst of both. Hot, it’s about flash, color, appeal, and engaging the public. Villain or hero, they’re cape celebrities. Cold, it’s… bloodshed, violence, assassination and secrecy. Capes of the underworld. The public doesn’t see or hear about the cold capes. The media does not speak of them.” - Excerpt from Drone 23.5
