Thanks, bro.

Re-read how masking works. Another mage of initiate level can attempt to
break his masking by pitting his initiate level against Kor's. This will
alert him. Likely he was ask the offender to stop, if it continues
he would simply attempt to spell him down. As I said before, Kor
really doesnt take kindly to people trying to get at obvious secrets in
the shadows. There is a reason we work here, and honor that goes along with
that.

And not to sound like a munchkin, I dont want to reveal Kor's current
initiate level. It is, in my opinion, grotesque.

This is something that has honestly not really occured to Jason. Castor
and Pollux (my two hell hounds) are able to tell me in both forms and it just
doesnt occur to him that his smell might be what is giving him away. He does
nothing to mask that at all and wont until he figures it out.
