To cloak a card, turn it face down. It becomes a 2/2 face-down creature card with ward {2}, no name, no subtypes, and no mana cost. Put that card onto the battlefield face down. That permanent is a cloaked permanent for as long as it remains face down. The effect defining its characteristics works while the card is face down and ends when it’s turned face up.
Hexproof
Hexproof is a static ability.
“Hexproof” on a permanent means “This permanent can’t be the target of spells or abilities your opponents control.”
