and now for some lore: Fae masks are highly prized as burial masks for monster hunters. For example, if your old master dies protecting the city from a dragon, you will go out and hunt a fae to pay respect to the skills your master taught you. Unfortunately this tradition has instilled a deep mistrust amongst fae against all non-fae because who knows if the next asshole will want to steal your face. (stealing a fae's mask won't fatally wound them, but it does take a while to grow back, and sometimes it doesnt grow back at all)
The fae masks do serve a practical purpose as burial masks though, as any corpse reanimated while wearing one will completely retain the personality and memories they possessed while alive.
