FlankerShadeLANDfiend
These masks fracture trust and turn allies against each other. When a powerful worshipper catches Norgorber's eye, he sometimes transforms that worshipper into one of his masks—supernatural incarnations who become powerful proxies to their god but sacrifice their free will. Other Ancestries Most of the masks of Norgorber are human, but not all. A mask's statistics don't change if it's a Small creature, and they gain increased space and reach if they're Large or larger.

Abilities
Constant Spells — A constant spell affects the monster without the monster needing to cast it, and its duration is unlimited. If a constant spell gets counteracted, the monster can reactivate it by spending the normal spellcasting actions the spell requires.
Reactive Strike —
Secretive Tattoos — The mask keeps their faith tattoo hidden (typically by wearing gloves to cover the palm). To use it as a divine focus, they must first Interact to uncover the tattoo. The tattoo then stays uncovered until the mask Interacts to cover it up. A mask's faith tattoo only allows for the casting of Harm. Upon the mask's death, the tattoo disappears.
Aspect's Agony — When a mask of Norgorber Strikes a foe with a weapon, they inflict an additional 1d6 persistent mental damage. As long as a creature is taking this persistent damage, they're Off-Guard.
