The mask of the High Priest of ancient Erebora. In ancient times, the gods of the Ereborans ceased to answer their prayers, and in desperation, the people turned to the forbidden worship of dragons. Now, of their works, only this mask remains.

Desirability

The mask of the Dragon[1] trades the 3-4 AC from a normal +2 helmet for a bonus +3 slaying. It also gives a nice willpower bonus, and see invisible is convenient to have.

For melee and ranged fighters, it's usually worth using over a plain helmet. Even for casters, the willpower can make it worth using (in lieu of another hat of willpower). You can find better randart hats/helmets out there, though.

The mask covers your face but not your head, so characters with horns will still be able to use their auxiliary attack, making it a great fit for Minotaurs.
