The Blighted Beak is a community-created headwear item for the Medic and was released as a part of the Australian Christmas update. It appears as a bird-like mask that is styled directly after the primitive respirators historically worn by Template:W.

  • Hat is now a Misc. item.

Trivia

  • During the Black Plague, doctors wore beak like masks stuffed with flowers and spices to ward off terrible smells. It was believed that these foul odors were the cause of infection.
  • The mask unlike a Plague doctor's mask does not cover the full face, and upon closer inspection it can be seen that the nose does not have a bottom part (where the flowers and spices would be), making it more akin to a masquerade mask then a plague mask.
