Masks



The Masks: Tragedians and Executors. A special type of non-playable characters. Sometimes their presence is caused by in-game matters. In other cases they are needed for direct interaction with the player omitting his character.

They are your everpresent companions who guide you through the game—or perhaps deceive you; whatever the case, they are definitely following your progress very closely. The Tragedian is a platzhalter hero, a shade of what could have been were it not for you; like all mimes, he’s gently compassionate and moderately useless. The Executor is a plaguebringer; if you see him, it means you’ve failed to save someone, yet he also seems to care for you in his own fashion.

It’s hard to say how many tragedians and executors there are in the Town and if The Tragedian and The Executor appearing here and there are the same two guys or not. They wear masks, after all.
