If you act sufficiently out of order for your assigned role, your Monarch's Mask may crack as a warning to get back into character and take a more attentive care in your performance. Alternatively, if you wish to call upon your native attributes for a particular section of the play, you may use a feature or ability from your original character sheet at the cost of voluntarily taking a crack in your mask.
Outstanding performances and inspired character moments, in contrast, may also mend a single crack in your mask if the presentation is sufficiently moving. Mended cracks can only reverse damage done on an individual who has already tarnished their mask, it has no effect if there are no faults to fix.
Actors can only have a total of three cracks in their facade before the mask shatters completely, and their visage is exposed. As for what happens then? Well... why don't you just worry about putting on a good show instead~?
