The Heavy upon reanimation

Cadaver's Cranium is a community-created headwear item for the Heavy. It appears as an enlarged forehead stapled to the Heavy's skull, with thin black hair atop, based on popular culture 'Template:W' portrayals.

Update history

October 27, 2010 Patch (Scream Fortress Update)

  • The Cadaver's Cranium was added to the game.

Bugs

  • When a Heavy wearing the Cadaver's Cranium is ÜberCharged, the hat will appear darker in areas, causing a noticeable difference between the hat and the Heavy's actual skin.

Trivia

  • The developmental name for this hat was "Frank's Hat"[1] before Valve renamed it and added it to the Scream Fortress update.
  • Like several other Halloween hats, the Cadaver's Cranium does not have a randomly selected level when found or purchased. Its level is always 31, presumably because Halloween is on the 31st of October.
  • During development, the hat included two bolts on either side of the Heavy's neck, similar to those seen in some depictions of Frankenstein's monster.
    • The hat is similar to the Template:W depiction of Frankenstein's monster.
  • Template:W is another word for a dead human body, often used to describe a body in medical training or research.
