The Possessed Mask was released during the 2022 run of Ebon Gate. These were created by GM Khorbin, with coding provided by GM Meraki.

Tier 1

This is the off-the-shelf version. This comes with several verbs as well as ambient whispers.

Analyze

This is a Possessed Mask.

The mask can be altered with a long or a show, but the noun should not change from "mask", as it covers the entire face.

It is currently Tier 1 of 2.

The verbs available include:
Tier 1: wear/remove, get/stow, touch, and peer.
Once Tier 2 is unlocked, you will gain access to verbs: prod, poke, listen, and clench. 

You get no sense of whether or not the mask may be further lightened.

Usage

Verb First Person Third Person
Wear
As you place <Possessed Mask> on your face, the whispers of a thousand voices fill your head, in an ominous warning of the dangers ahead. As Khorbin places <Possessed Mask> on his face, faint tendrils of grey smoke wrap around $P0H head before being absorbed back into Khorbin's shoulders.
Remove
As you pry <Possessed Mask> off your face, voices scream at you in agony, as if fighting you. Placing both hands on his <Possessed Mask>, Khorbin struggles to remove it, markedly cursing under hisbreath.
Touch
When worn
Touching his <Possessed Mask> briefly, sinister voices stir within your head, breaking your concentration. Khorbin touches his <Possessed Mask> with a hand. Khorbin's hand begins to tremble before Khorbin lowers his hand to his side, visibly distraught.
Touch
Not worn
Running your hands over <Possessed Mask>, dark whispers begin to swim in your head, tempting you to wear the <Possessed Mask>. Khorbin glances down at his <Possessed Mask>, momentarily lost deep in thought before looking away, startled.
Get
When not worn, or in hands
Sinister whispers burrow deep into your mind as you grasp <Possessed Mask> in your hand. Khorbin removes a mask from his cloak. Khorbin's brow furrows in a fleeting expression of confusion.
Stow
When held
As you release your <Possessed Mask>, the whispers clear from your mind. N/A
Peer
Turning <Possessed Mask> over in your hands, indiscernible voices flood your mind, tempting you to put <Possessed Mask> on your face. Khorbin examines his <Possessed Mask> closely; his hands momentarily tremble while handling <Possessed Mask>.
Whispers
A young girl’s voice innocently asks, “More, more blood on your hands, yes?”
A slithering voice snaps at you, “Feed us, breathe us, live us, become us!”
A slithering voice snaps at you, “Slice and maim we did. Yes, that is how you killed her!"
Vehemently cursing at you, a female voice cries out, “Bring him to the woods, but keep the knife hidden!”
A loud and clear, booming voice exclaims, “No one escapes alive!”
A slithering voice snaps at you, “To break their bones is not enough; their souls are what we consume!”
A growling whisper beckons to you, “The crunch of her bones, what a tasty delight.”
A young girl’s voice innocently states, “The safest spot to hide anything is inside the body of another!”
A female voice vehemently curses you, “Why would you let her go?! She has tricked us, but I can still use her.
An insidious voice within your head states, “Don’t struggle; you laughed, you enjoyed, you were enticed by his downfall, and the fact she doesn’t know is all the more sweet.”
A growling whisper beckons to you, “After you dine upon the animals, I’ll devour your friends!”
A growling whisper beckons to you, “Death brings but a moment's satisfaction. We hunger for more."
A loud and clear, booming voice exclaims, “Swine! You will take what I have given you, or you shall cower in my presence!”
A rich, seductive voice calmly says, “It trickles so slowly at first, a small droplet at a time. Before you know it, it runs together and pools about in its crimson glory.”
An insidious voice within your head states, “Observing the burned wreckage of your soul entices us greatly.”
A female voice vehemently curses you, “According to you, he tripped. But I remember who pushed him.”
An insidious voice within your head states, “Drowning her was the least of our problems, but the downfall of her family into madness was the true treasure.”

Tier 2

When unlocked, this tier comes with additional verbs, as well as ambient visions and movements.

Analyze

This is a Possessed Mask.

The mask can be altered with a long or a show, but the noun should not change from "mask", as it covers the entire face.

It is currently Tier 2 of 2.

The verbs available include:
Tier 1: wear/remove, get/stow, touch, and peer.
Tier 2: prod, poke, listen, and clench.

You get no sense of whether or not the mask may be further lightened.

Usage

Verb First Person Third Person
Prod
When worn, turns ambient OFF/ ON
You close your eyes and plead with the voices inside your head. Eventually, they subside to a gentle whisper

that you can ignore.

As you relax your guard, voices rush inside your head, whispering dark omens.

N/A
Poke
When worn, standing
You jab a finger at your <Possessed Mask>, before violently being forced to your knees in obvious pain. Khorbin jabs a finger at his <Possessed Mask>, before violently being forced to his knees in obvious pain. You are Stunned!
Poke
When worn, not standing
You jab a finger at your <Possessed Mask>, before shuddering in obvious pain. Khorbin jabs a finger at his <Possessed Mask>, before shuddering in obvious pain. You are stunned!
Listen
When worn
Whispers, faint at first, become increasingly louder, making your mind race with images of yourself crawling out of a

blackened flaming pit while tentacles grasp at you desperately, attempting to pull you back into the flames.

Khorbin tilts his head to one side while the upper portion of his body violently jerks to the other side.
Clench
Squeezing <Possessed Mask>, a swarm of voices dizzyingly fills your mind until you are unable

to continue, releasing your grip.

Khorbin grips his <Possessed Mask> tightly in his hand, his body tense before releasing his grip.
First Person Third Person
For some unknown reason, you start to laugh uncontrollably before forcing yourself to clasp your hand over your mouth. Khorbin erratically laughs out loud before covering his mouth with his hand, eyes wide with disbelief.

An erratic laughing noise momentarily pierces the room
Your head suddenly jerks to the left. Khorbin's head suddenly jerks to the left.
You feel the nails from your fingers dig into your palm painfully. Instinctively, you begin to rub your hands together nervously. Khorbin's arms tense as one of his hands begins clenching and releasing erratically. Shortly after, Khorbin briefly rubs his hands together nervously.
Your body shakes as you start to giggle uncontrollably. Khorbin starts to giggle loudly before calming himself.

An erratic giggling noise momentarily overtakes the area.
Your arms momentarily twitch and flail outwards. Khorbin's elbows jut outward, his arms hanging down as if Khorbin were a puppet on strings.
A singular, loud whisper pierces the minor cacophony of voices swirling within your mind. A gruesome vision of your own death plays out in your mind. Khorbin's breathing noticeably speeds up in a moment of distress before calming back down.
A gruesome vision floods your mind of a lifelong friend, bound and gagged, lying on the ground. Her blue eyes dart in panicked distress as a flash of

metal steals your focus. As your vision turns crimson red, her sobbing, muffled screams echo painfully in your mind.

Khorbin sharply turns his head to one side, reflexively cringing his shoulders.
Your hand flies up to your face and slaps it, leaving your face stinging with pain. Khorbin violently slaps his own face.
Your leg begins to shake uncontrollably, as if it had a mind of its own, stopping as quickly as it started. As his leg trembles for an instant, Khorbin glances at it, bewildered.
You find yourself staring intensely at <person>. Khorbin stares at <person> intensely.

You find Khorbin staring intensely at you.
