Hi there! When Complete Scoundrel came out and I browsed through the table of contents, the first thing that hit my eyes was this lovely PrC. The Idea is so great, I was stunned. When I began to read the mechanics however, I was kind of, no, very disappointed. It sucks. Completely. So, the start of our last DnD3.5 Campaign is near, and I want to use at least the Idea of the MoMa as my personal DM-PC/NPC. I had some Ideas, here is my personal Master of Masks, critique and comments welcome.
