-Faceless creatures wear masks- either figuratively or literally, if you prefer. This makes the class an excellent choice for anyone that's engaged in espionage or deep-cover work, or anyone else that simply wishes to reap the benefits of having an unreadable (and therefore pliable) identity. The [[Trickster]] and/or [[Charlatan]] classes synergize extremely well with being Faceless if you wish to do a lot of social maneuvering, while if you prefer for your unknowability to be more physical, dramatic and explicitly supernatural you may wish to check out [[Darkseeker]].+Faceless creatures wear masks- either figuratively or literally, if you prefer.
