The Mask

• Covers features and third parties will see a unique message about the person wearing a mask.
• Unique message changes depending on the pigments (or lack there of) applied to the mask.
• Can be charged with an ability by applying a pigment to it.
• Charged ability can be used by POINTing the mask at another PLAYER.
• Masks have a cooldown of one day per POINT due to all the abilities they have.
• Masks can be repainted with pigments and CLEANed at will. Once painted, the mask stays painted and charged until POINT or CLEAN are used.
• POINT does not remove the paint from the mask, so you get to keep whatever guild feature mask for the pigments you used.
• Bonds on first GET. Yes, this means you can pick up your gift and leave it in the bag to sell or transfer to another of your characters. Be warned: WE WILL NOT RESET YOUR MASK'S BOND IF YOU DO THIS.
• May only be charged with one ability at a time.
• Must be CLEANed to apply new pigment.
• Only the mask owner may use the mask.
• STUDY will tell you if the mask is charged with an ability.

Pigment Jar

• Every gift comes with one jar, and more will be available for sale.
• Does not bond to owner
• Pigment jars may be studied to reveal your Guild's pigment recipe and how to use the jar.
• You may only make your Guild's recipe or a Necromancer one.
• You may make endless pigments.
• All users that are smart enough to see how to "unlock" the pigment jars may make Necromancer pigments.
• ONLY Necromancers are shown their guild's recipe.
• Making a Necromancer pigment is not illegal and does not give outrage.
• STUDY reveals how to use the jar and your recipe.
• To provide some balance, Necromancers will find they have access to something else when they STUDY a pigment jar that is not "unlocked."
• Thieves that have learned certain tricks of disguise will find they can utilize pigment jars in unique ways.

Pigments

• Pigments are not bonded, you may freely sell, trade, or give them away.
• Pigments decay and become "some useless pigment" after 5 days (prime) or 14 days (Fallen, Platinum).
• Pigments have the verb STUDY and APPLY.
• STUDY shows you how long until decay.
• All guild pigments are discernible by a unique TAP.
• Every pigment will apply a unique ability and a unique feature string to a mask.

• Paladin - Aura of Divine Empowerment: Ten charge balance that arcs from a left hand held shield and disrupts the balance of an engaged creature or player. Does not work with worn shields or shields held in right hand.
• Barbarian - Aura of Intimidation: One charge effect that will drop one non-player target dead in combat. Triggered by health status.
• Ranger - Aura of Bees: Aura of bees that auto-attack engaged targets and slowly reduce until gone.
• Cleric - Aura of Nomlas-Blessings: Pulsing bless effect that applies to the target and anyone in the target's group.
• Empath - Violet Aura of Cure Disease: Cures or diminishes a target's disease. Applies disease to mask-user at 125% intensity of what was healed.
• Warrior Mage - Aura of Familiarity: An air elemental familiar follows you around for a length of time. If you become stunned, the familiar will drag you away and disperse.
• Thief - Aura of Shadow: A ten minute long effect that pulses every thirty seconds. Will attempt to hide the target silently on each pulse.
• Moon Mage - Aura of Sight: May gain a full locate on one target. Normal traceback for Moon Mages is possible.
• Bard - Aura of Sympathy: One hour Aura of Tongue effect and 90 min Ellie's Cry effect is placed on target. If the target dies while the effect is active, the mask-user becomes immediately aware of where the target is.
• Trader - Aura of Gem Prospection: Creates a random gem worth between 5-7 gold and gives it to the target. Attempts to use hand slots and at feet slots.
• Necromancer - Aura of Corruption: Requires consent from the target to accept the magic. Gives outrage for use. If in justice area, you risk charges. Provides temporary feature corruption, dark vision, underwater breathing, and an anti-stun.
• Commoner - Aura of the Crafter: The next item you complete is embellished with the crest of your guild. If used on a Commoner, the item is "devoid of decor." If Necromancer, the crest applied to a finished crafted item is randomized.

Abilities

• Abilities used do not grant consent unless used to assist someone in an active PvP conflict in which the mask-user was not directly involved. (Same as healing someone during PvP combat.)
• Abilities used on a target do not give the target consent against the mask-user. (See below for exclusion to this.)
• Abilities previously placed on a target that harm a third party later on do not grant consent against the mask-user. Harmful abilities require combat engagement, so standard consent rules apply.
• Abilities used to disrupt or harass others will be handled on case-by-case situation. IE: Using the Trader ability to disrupt other's scripts will be considered mechanics abuse or disruption.
• Special target acceptance is required for the Necromancer ability due to the nature of its abilities. (See below.)

FAQ

• Q: Do you have to wear it constantly to use it at a certain point?

A: You don't have to wear it to use it. Wearing it enables the feature hiding, but to use the mask's ability charge, you just hold it.

• Q: Does this stack with face-worn armor?

A: Absolutely. The mask is worn in the non-armor head slot, so you can wear it with your helms, helmets, balaclavas, etc. I get the feeling most people have forgotten that we released a secondary head slot.

• Q: The cleric-painted mask lets her... do what? POINT her mask at a target, and grants the target and their party members a bless (adore the name, btw)?

A: A bless on a pulse, so it continues to fire and hit all members in the group.
