Mass for Avatars is relative to shape/size, and unaffected by attachments.
Mass[m] is the quantity of material that something contains, and is expressed in Kg (Kilogramms). The Weight [G] is a Force, expressed in N (Newtons), and it is m * g, where g is the the gravitational atraction (g = 9.81 on Earth). Mass is NOT weight or density. Ex. objects with bouancy still have mass and still require energy to move.

Prior to server code version 1.18.6.76747 avatar mass was fixed at 1.954922 Lindens. It is now relative to Avatar shape/size.

-Avatar mass is not a constant of 1.954922 Lindens.  Avatar mass as of Second Life Server 1.18.6.76747 server code is now dynamic and relative to the Avatar's size/shape.  *Note* Attached objects still do not effect avatar mass.  - 1/12/08 -
