Curious Item Club: Pan's Mask
🕑 Added 2015-10-10 17:57:32 +0000 UTC This mask is carved from a pale wood, although under moonlight it seems to glow with a faint, mossy green light. To casual inspection it obviously depicts a faun, but a Knowledge (religion) check (DC 12) will note the distinctive scar on its left cheek signifying that this is, in fact, the mischievous god Pan. (The wound being that given to him by Freya, who struck him with the Sliver of Ragnarok when he sought to seduce her at the gates of Fólkvangr.)When worn, the mask allows you to continuously speak with animals… and only animals. All other attempts at spoken language are rendered as the twittering of birds or the bleeting of sheep.
The mask is, of course, cursed and cannot be removed except by an animal (although there is nothing to indicate this requirement.) A remove curse spell will also counteract this effect.
(This material is covered by the OGL. See attached PDF.)
