mask of Odysseus
Plural: Unknown
No, not the figure from Hellenic legend who was part of the sacking of Troy, this Odysseus specialized in financial protection services. In other words he guarded Twilight's largest banks. You could call him a protector of troy (ounces, that is).
A crafty strategist, Odysseus only turned to fighting as a last resort. He was often heard to claim that fortunes were saved or lost by the time the blueprints were drawn.
This mask contained a variety of optical enhancements that served him well, providing multi-spectral vision that allowed him to see details others would miss, and exceptional ranged targeting ability, because both the original and the modern Odysseuses were good with the bow, see?
