Töby takes his mask off! Beachewalkers wear their masks to hide themselves from the things that live in the old growth forests (monsters aren't that clever, and a mask [albeit a mask made of magic] is generally enough of a disguise to keep them from noticing you). However, inside their homes (which are also cloaked in various magics) beachwalkers can take their masks off. I had a lot of fun designing beachwalker homes- the forests are dangerous and generally uninhabitable, so beachwalkers can only make their homes on the thin strips of stony beaches (thus their name). The land is saturated with magic and magical creatures, and even though the beaches are relatively "safe" a lot of non-hostile magicklings- sprites, fae, imps, sprigs, etc.- find their way into beachwalker homes. It's the beachwalker equivalent to having fruit flies, spiders, and mice. Just regular pests.
