Plague Doctor Mask Item

The Plague Doctor Mask is an accessory item in Remixed Dungeon that grants permanent immunity to toxic and paralytic gases when equipped. It is the starting ring accessory for the Doctor class and is also obtained by completing the Plague Doctor NPC quest.

A carved ebony mask shaped like a ravenous skull, fitted with amethyst gemstones in the eye sockets and lined with herbs and spices. Wearing it filters the air you breathe through a labyrinth of tubes and filters, masking the stench of decay that clings to you like a shroud.
