Iksar Hide Mask not changing faction.
 

I am a Halfling Rogue of Bristlebane, and using the mask still makes me con Scowls to all the Iksar factions.

Is this supposed to be happening?

They don’t like rogues nor bristlebane.

Masks/illusions just adjust your racial faction. You can still be kos for other reasons

Iksars are a hateful lot. At one point my character was friendly with guards and still KOS to shamans / sks.

Less than agnostic? I see.

Yeah illusions only give you a faction adjustment, lets say +500 (This is just a guess). As mentioned above, religion is a factor when determining starting faction. If Iksars dislike Bristlebane, you may have a -300 (Also just a guess) from that. In this scenario, the mask would only be giving you a net +200. That isn't bad, but https://wiki.project1999.com/Faction scowling has 1000 points within it. I am not sure how close Bristlebane Rogues are to the bottom of scowling by default.

I am assuming you haven't been lowering your Iksar factions in some manner, so that probably isn't an additional factor.

Yeah this is why encs always roll agnostic

Never knew picking Bristlebane would blow up in my face, considering he counts as a neutral god.

Yes, but Iksar aren’t neutral. They are very xenophobic. All religions but CT are -1000*. I bet the original devs would have put agnostic as -1000 if they could have!

*actually varies between the different factions in cabilis, e.g the guards are pretty tolerant of Innoruuk at -50 compared to the merchants -1000.

It seems certain guilds are a bit less scathing of VS’s dip into inny.

As an agnostic rogue I have no issues in Cabilis with the Iksar mask.
