Azgehder Masks
Azgehder Masks are breathing apparatus that Azgehder — those affected by the Geist Affliction — need in order to survive.
Without them, they will succumb to suffocation within minutes and perish in a violent explosion that is capable of damaging both the physical and metaphysical aspects of reality.
Mass-produced Artifacts of Power
Azgehder Masks are one of the rare few Artifacts of Power that can be considered mass-produced, although each one is custom made for each individual Azgehder. As of the writing of this text, there exist two industrial societies that construct their own varaints of the Azgehder Masks: The Azgehder Utrustica Artificer Association and the Azgehder Respirato Society.

Ani-Tech Azgehder Masks
A notable majority of the Azgehder Masks are constructed by Anishan Utrustica Artificers that utilize Ani-Tech. These Ani-Tech Azgehder Masks are primarily considered to be for temporary usage or to be utilized in emergencies, as they break down considerably more often than their Respirato counterparts and thus need relatively frequent repairs. They also have the unfortunate habit of demanifesting into pure Ani Force after a varied amount of time, unless recharged by an Anishan with the prerequisite knowledge. However, some do utilize them as their main masks.
Azgehder Respirato Society Masks
Respirato Azgehder Masks
Azgehder Respirato Masks are constructed by the secretive Respirato Society. They are considered to be more appropriate for long-term usage as they rarely need repairs by knowledgable craftsman, nor need the regular touch of an Anishan Utrustica Artificer as to not demanifest.
The Azgehder Respirato Masks draw upon the Vapors of Sereoth to renew and regenerate themselves consistently. After receiving damage, they will regenerate akin to organics, although sufficient damage will necessitate the work of a learned Respirato Azgehder. Exactly how they are constructed is a deeply guarded secret within Respirato Society, although it is rumored that an advanced form of the Arcane Artform Strings of Sereoth is utilized.
Component materials
A majority of Azgehder Masks have components made out primarily metallic, cermaic and plastic materials, regardless of which society crafted them. Rarer examples may include wood, stone or crystal. These materials are made out of either Sereoth or Ani Force, not harvested or processed naturally from beneth the soil. Neon-lights, as well as paintworks and symbolic markings, are usually added to make the masks more unique to the Azgehder.
