In hindsight, I should have probably listened to the leprechaun’s strange poems and limericks. There had been something in there about a vorpal sword, biting jaws), and advice to shun several dangerous creatures. But you have to understand, the wee fellow was rhyming and singing incessantly, following along beside me as I was trying to think. He literally would not stop talking. He was lewd and crude and made me feel like I needed to take a bath in the lake, even when I was taking a bath in the lake and his little head popped out nearby. It’s honestly no wonder I told him to stick his shillelagh where the sun doesn’t shine. There is nothing in the world worse than having to put up with a rhyming leprechaun...well, except being eaten alive.
As I drew my decidedly non-vorpal sword, I tried to imagine that the giant bird’s gizzard was the leering chortling leprechaun. Somehow, that made the whole thing easier.

Mythic Fey Magic (Sp) The reveler’s mythic power allows her to emulate powerful fey magic. She chooses either fear or steal soul 3/day. She may only activate Mythic Fey Magic while wearing a number of different masks equal to her Charisma modifier each day. The caster level for the spell-like ability is equal to her barbarian level, and the save DC is either 14 + her Charisma modifier (for the 3/day spell-like abilities) or 15 + her Charisma modifier (for the 1/day spell-like abilities). The reveler must have a Charisma of at least 15 and be at least 12th level and Mythic Rank 1 to select this evolution. Normally, only a reveler with access to the chaneque mask may select this evolution, but new mythic fey could open up other 4th level spell-like abilities 3/day or 5th level spell-like abilities 1/day. Mythic Fey Magic 5112932 606136 Steal Soul (Su) As a ranged attack, the reveler can pelt an opponent with a ritually prepared, soul-stealing fey skull. If the Feats skull strikes its target, he must succeed at a Will saving throw (DC 10 + 1/2 the reveler’s barbarian Honestly, the lion-hilted blade looked pretty silly, level + her Wisdom modifier) to prevent it from andhy would you cool a forged blade in alcohol ripping his soul from his body.

creature’s reign of terror. I felt a bit drunk on the rush. And then I realized, somehow the blade had freed me from the creature’s power. Task revelers like Astrid, as a rule, are considered second-class to other masquerade revelers at best. Anyone who could hold the same mask and perform a single-minded action over and over again didn’t understand the ever-changing nature of the masquerade. I myself have often thought the same. But I realized that Astrid’s forge was also a place of change and transformation. And that day, I learned a little more about the masquerade, something that the short- sighted revelers will always miss. Oh, and I also killed a bogeyman. With a lion sword forged in feywine.

Sometimes, they ask me why I don’t wear a mask of lost identity. Many revelers consider it to be the single most powerful item they could possibly find. But they have never run into the gancanagh fey lord Peitho the Dollmaster.
I had the misfortune to come across the Dollmaster and the fortune to escape the encounter as a version of myself that was still recognizable. His masked Dolls attend him, but they aren’t constructs. Each one was once a powerful mortal adventurer or immortal in their own right. Sporting specially tailored masks of lost identity that mockingly recall who they once were, these piteous creatures were once paladins, bards, succubi, nymphs, and all manner of heroes, villains, and immortals, but now they have lost all of that. All that is left of them is to serve him, and whatever else he invents to feed his own twisted sense of humor. He might decide that a paladin and an antipaladin are best friends now, and dress them up in matching outfits, one white and one black.
That vile creature sickens me. I may never be powerful enough to stand against him, but if ever I
