Trivia

  • The "Blighted Beak" is indicative of the plague doctor masks that were worn by specialised medical physicians who treated patients suffering from the black plague during the middle ages. Physicians at the time believed that the bubonic plague could be contracted via miasmatic bad air, and to prevent themselves from breathing in this bad air while visiting patients, they wore this early form of gas mask. The beak of the mask was stuffed with herbs and chemicals to keep the stench and the miasmatic air away.
