The Mask
Soulmask's core system. What the Mask is and how possessing tribesmen works.
- Role
- Core progression
The Mask is the relic at the centre of Soulmask. It is your progression system and your superpower: as you repair its nodes it grants new abilities, and once you fix the Control node you can place the Mask on a tribesman to possess them directly. Your own character falls asleep while you act through the tribesman, using their skills and proficiencies. The five Masks each grant a different combat style, so which one you wear shapes how you fight.
