Persona Masks

Persona masks are the core of the College, defining those that wear them and allowing them to experience magics beyond what they are usually capable of. They allow you to treat yourself as an alignment other than your own for all effects that depend on alignment, for good or ill. If you are under such an effect when you remove your mask, don your mask, or change which mask is active, your new alignment takes effect immediately. For example, while wearing the Angel mask, you are able to attune to the Talisman of Pure Good, even if you would normally be unable to. However, if you were to deactivate or remove the mask, your attunement to the talisman would immediately end if your alignment were no longer good. Persona masks are placed under two categories: Lower Tier Masks and Higher Tier Masks. Higher Tier Masks require a higher degree of magical energy to create, and as such only a limited amount of these masks is able to be crafted by one person. Lower Tier Masks have no such restriction. As you gain more magical influence, the amount of Higher Tier Masks you can created increases. You gain the ability to craft a second Higher Tier Mask at 9th level and a third at 17th level.
