Would a lead mask work against detect spells? I suppose this becomes a philosophical question immediately, because it requires us to determine if the world is built around substance dualism, but still would it work?
Also, how much would lead cost?
I would vote no.
I never imagined detect aura's coming directly from the head. I figure it's the whole body that radiates.
Now a suit of lead plate mail.... THAT would work!
the answer I'm pretty sure on: it helps as much as a paper mask, except for x-ray ring.
so my vote is also "no".

The reason this came up is because all of the detect spells are blocked by a "thin sheet of lead".
EDIT: Scrying has the same weakness. What about scrying?
I would vote no.

That's where the group is leaning, but as a player trying to annoy Razmir's followers, and as a character with psychosis - with a paladin in the party, I'm really hoping that this is a world of Cartesian Dualism.
The question becomes: How thin a layer of lead? Could merely electro-plating a suit of plate work without increasing weight too much.
Given that the creature is evil (or not), I'd say you'd have to cover the whole creature in lead to make them detect-proof.
