View source for Illusionist

Once Wizards, the Illusionists who broke off to follow Grand Mage Zyzyl have come forth into the public's eye, ready to prove themselves to all those who have question their skills. Having access to both vedic and arcane lists, these hybrids bring scientific order to the untapped potential of the mind. Through use of light and shadows, as well as a healthy dose of mental magic, these mages are able to reshape reality into whatever form they desire, forcing others to believe as they do as they bend minds to their will. Beware, for the Wizard Council does not approve of their magics, as they spit in the face of "conventional" arcane science.

An Illusionist relies on its spells offensively and its Evasion defensively.

== Available Spell Circles ==
Illusionists begin with 4 spell circles. An additional circle is available at levels 15, 30, and 40.

Many illusionist spells benefit from the use of foci, which give a bonus similar to how quality affects items. You can change whether spells use foci automatically (if optional) by typing <code>settings components <on|off></code>. When the Use Components setting is off, you can add the argument <code>#f</code> when casting spells to use a focus charge.

'''Spell circles other then Arcane Prime, Vedic Prime, and Via Mar Sani Qel are located in a hidden area not easily accessible until level 5.'''

Click on the circle name to see details about that circle. For an explanation of magic and its use, see the About Magic page.
