"A very important thing to remember while playing an Undead is that you cannot just traipse about with your bony face free to the world. You’re a monster. A hideous, frightening monster! So cover your face. Or, consider ripping the face off of a nearby corpse to disguise yourself as someone of that race! The Mask of the Shapeshifter will allow you to take on the appearance of any mortal race you would like.

For example, you can shift to a Dwarf for better prices from a Dwarven merchant, or shift to an Elf to dine on a corpse and learn their memories with the Elven racial ability Corpse Eater. Multiple masks can be made, and they can even be used by other living characters to disguise themselves as other races, allowing them to approach situations in new ways."

Its a bit strange to change from an undead lizard to a living dwarf, but hey, magic. And thats fine in itself, i understand the reason behind it. And it then naturally gives you the ability to pick the race for the situation.

The annoying part that makes the mask unessecarly op is the ability to gain whatever race you pick, racial. For what reason is that reasonable to gain?
And if you can just switch between the races and gain whatever racial you want, whenever you want. Whats the point in picking race in the beginning (except the to play the different origins)?

Then its just easier to have the whole team be undeads, so its easier to build healers for the whole team. Then just put on the masks of whatever race you wanted your class to have.
