— sure, let's give Sizhui half a dozen of these beauties. They're the size of regular garden snails, ten times as lazy and move their eye tentacles very... very... very... slowly. Like, so slowly. Are they even alive kind of slowly. They also droop with sadness now and then, and take periodic feeding every six hours. Lettuce will suffice. Hand-fed.
— The key reference is Renaissance Venice, so take fashion cues from that. Now, the party is understood to comprise 'foreigners,' and there might be a tiny bit of leeway for them on that count. But I wouldn't expect the 'bare minimum' to pass.
— any skill learned can be retained, but the extent of the learning will depend on the subject and on any character's individual aptitude / natural inclination to the skill. What were you thinking?
— apprentices would study separately, unless they're assigned to the same school, under the same skill.
— You do what you want with your mask, but keep it fashionable. Masks aren't required, but choosing not to wear one, even just tied elegantly around their wrist, is more of a... morning gesture or a poor person choice. Characters performing public service or anything requiring proof of their identity would, of course, remove their masks for a time.
