Origin[]
Sylvanus Morley was an archaeologist who studied the Mayan civilization, working on the site of Chichen Itza and compiling Mayan writing for the Carnegie Institution. He also conducted espionage in Mexico and Central America for the United States during World War I, using his work as a cover; he was to search for German submarine bases, which proved non-existent.
Effects[]
When worn, it allows user to see and understand languages based on pictures. The user will become paranoid and search for threats and enemies that do not exist.
