The Golden Mask is an item that grants any civilian exclusive access to Marco Barbarigo's Carnevale party. During the Carnevale, Ezio Auditore had to pickpocket the mask from Marco's bodyguard Dante Moro in order to enter the party and assassinate Marco.[1]
How to Obtain
There are 4 Carnevale challenges and winning them all granted someone the golden mask. These challenges are a running race, capture the flag, woman charming and a fist fight. When Ezio won in the first 3 challenges and was winning in the fist fight, Silvio Barbarigo bribed the Carnevale organizer to allow guards with knives to enter the fight. Ezio then defeated the guards and won the challenge. Barbarigo, however, bribed the organizer to give the mask to Dante Moro instead.[1]
Ezio, Antonio and Sister Teodora planned on how to take the mask back. Sister Teodora warned them that each mask is numbered to prevent unauthorized access with copies, therefore discounting the possibility of forging a replica. Ezio then suggested killing Dante, but Antonio told him to steal the mask from him instead, using Sister Teodora's girls to distract him, as killing Dante would surely cancel the party altogether.[1]
After successfully stealing it, Ezio wore the mask just before entering Marco Barbarigo's party. There, Ezio hid from the Templar guards and Dante, while they searched for Ezio and the stolen mask. Under the cover of the fireworks, Ezio then assassinated Marco with his hidden gun.[1]
