(Suggestion) Thulecite Mask

[Thieverpedia]

So, as it stands, we have absolutely no way to change characters mid-game without console commands, and that would delete player day count. We're stuck with who we choose. Granted, we should have thought about the character choice from the start, but some might prefer another character later on. Or maybe we just get bored and want to try someone else.

My suggestion? A new item in the Ancient tab that I've called the Thulecite Mask. Upon use, this valuable item would change your character without affecting day count, but would have the negligable effect of giving the new character resurrection stats and reduced health (as if they died once or twice). Proposed crafting recipe would be...

-5 Thulecite (down from original 20)

-1 Telltale Heart

-2 Iridescent Gems (gems changed from orange)

This item would be one-use only and would disappear upon use. We've lacked a proper way to officially change characters sadly, and I'm sure this would be a hit with the late-game players who wish to try someone else out for a change. Thoughts?

I like the idea, but I'm not really sure about the recipe. An entire stack of thulecite is quite a lot. Especially when you need to share it with other people. And I'm not really sure if the orange gem's element fits with this or not.

Maybe using the iridescent gem?

That...that's a good idea. I think I'll edit it. Originally, it was orange gems because of their whole teleportation thing teleporting a new person in their place, but the opal manages to reach through space and draw down a star. I'd say that's a little further, and it's harder to get.
