Bendis (Chalkaverse-1)



"I was pleasantly when Raumo brought me this mask, asking what it was. One of the rarely found dual-power masks, the Bendis allows its bearer to track an object or individual to its location, provided a piece of the object or something belonging to the individual is provided. Invaluable is the second power, night vision. Seeing in the dark could be the difference between life and death in appropriate situations. The only issue with this mask is the concentration needed to use both powers at once, a difficult feat for one such as Raumo..."

- Tulwe's thoughts on the Kanohi Bendis.

The Kanohi Bendis was the Mask of Night Hunting.

Descriprion
The Kanohi Bendis allowed its bearer to find the location of an object or being, and also gave them night vision.

The Noble version of the mask could not track very far, had low night vision, and the wearer could not use both powers at once. The Great version could track over medium distances, had better night vision, and allowed the wearer to use both powers at once, though at great mental strain. The Nuva version could track over the longest distances, had the best night vision, and allowed the wearer to use both powers at once without as much mental strain.

The mask was known to be difficult to create.

Example Usage
Raumo used the night vision from a Kanohi Bendis to solve the dusk puzzle in the Temple of Dusk and Dawn.

Great

 * Raumo

Etymology
The Kanohi Bendis is named after the Thracian goddess of the hunt and the moon.

Trivia

 * Originally, the mask was going to be a mask of hunting, without night vision. After C33 picked Bendis for the mask's namesake he decided to tack on the night vision, after running the idea past.
