The Copper Mask is a face mask hammered from a sheet of copper, shaped like a hockey mask. It is protective gear for the Eye Mask slot. It shields the face from bites and scratches.
It stops half of bites and most scratches on the head. Its cost is vision, since the narrow eye holes halve how far the wearer can see. The copper mask also wears out quickly.
The mask is mostly forged at a smithy. Now and then one sits in a display case in an anthropology classroom. The Tailor is the best occupation for protective gear. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The mask stops half of bites and four scratches in five on the head. It also turns away a tiny share of gunshots. It keeps the face a little warm and blocks about half the wind.
The Metal Mask gives the same bite and scratch cover, stops more bullets and lasts much longer. The Gold Mask and the Silver Mask match the copper one exactly. The Hockey Mask is weaker, stopping under a third of bites and half of scratches. The Bone Mask comes close to the copper one.
The mask halves vision and adds only a touch of discomfort.
It takes the Eye Mask slot. Glasses, eye patches, other masks, breathing gear, full head pieces and full suits clash with it. A hat or a helmet can still be worn over it.
Tailoring
The mask holds up without getting holes. It wears out after very few hits, and each hit has an even chance to cost one. The Scrap Small Copper Item recipe turns the mask into Copper Scrap.
