Trivia
- Beak masks, whilst finding popularity in mask parties, originated as a makeshift gas mask for Medieval Template:Ws during the Black Death. The beak was reputed to be filled with scented materials (such as posies, roses, carnations, mint, camphor, or even a vinegar-soaked sponge). This was because at the time it was thought that bad smells caused disease.
- The contributors of the Blighted Beak also contributed the Grimm Hatte, another Bubonic Plague themed hat.
