Mask of Flame

This unusual looking mask is made from pitted and rusty iron. The face of the mask is somewhat featureless, with crude gashes cut for eyes and mouth. Each hole is surrounded by a tube-like projection that gives the mask-wearer a disturbing, somewhat mechanical look. The back of the mask is lined with padded leather, and stiff black leather straps hold it in place when worn. When the mask is donned the 'sockets' around the mouth and eyes glow with a faint reddish light, giving the mask a somewhat frightening appearance. Testing the object for magical properties reveal Great protection magic and Superb evocation magic. A Superb test of divination magic will reveal the mask's properties.

When worn the mask conveys the following upon the wearer:

• Great protection from fire and electrical attack. Attacks that manage to get past this protection have their effectiveness reduced by 50%.
• Good bonus to fire and electrical based magics. This power does not grant specific powers, but any abilities the wearer has are enhanced.
• Fiery nimbus - Upon command a nimbus of jagged, reddish lightning will being to play around the mask and its wearer. This field extends 5' in all directions, inflicting Fair electrical and fire damage upon anyone it touches. This power can be invoked thrice per day and lasts ten rounds.
• Flame Shot - The wearer can cause gouts of burning energy to shoot forth from the eyes and mouth of the mask, creating a searing column of energized flame sixty feet long. Anyone caught within this conflagration takes Great fire and electrical damage. This power can be invoked three times per day.
