Description
Game flavor: "Dance into the night then vanish at first light. Be remembered for your moves and all the synthetic pink hair you leave behind."
☉ 9 from [Malen](/wiki/characters/malen) gets you Personalism +1. Personalism is the Relation-cluster skill for the soft-side conversation — empathy, vibes, the read of someone's mood. Useful in basically every dialogue tree.
Compared to Malen's other inventory:
- [Mister Artista Hair Set](/wiki/items/mister-artista-hair-set) — ☉ 5, Nerve +1 - **Party Wig** — ☉ 9, Personalism +1 - [UFO Glasses](/wiki/items/ufo-glasses) — ☉ 7, Entanglement +1
All three are head-slot items with a single +1. Personalism is arguably the broadest-use skill of the three, but Nerve at ☉ 5 is cheaper. Buy by which checks you're failing.
The flavor text's "vanish at first light" is on-theme for a costume-shop item — pink hair as decoy, the wearer as ghost. If Malen's missing-father / payphone-disappearances thread pays off in disguise, this slot may matter beyond the +1.
