## Ancient Artifact: Masks
###

*"The mask, the mask, the mask, don't you understand? The mask will tell you what you need to know, make you who you need to be. Whatever your goal may be, put on the mask and see! Trust me..."*

~ From the dual blade chronicles, chapter 90

You have drawn a pact with a group of enchanted masks - to wear them for the rest of your life, never to express your true emotions: only through these objects can you do so. In exchange, you gain the ability to adopt the different roles that each mask was born to play, shifting your form, behaviour, and even gaining new abilities, though they are never truly your own.
