Illusion
Illusions aren't born in the usual sense, instead being formed from the thoughts and dreams of wizards. These illusions may continue to persist even after the wizard ceases using them, though most are fairly ephemeral and dissipate quickly. Illusions can be created to imitate a wide variety of materials, such as water, metals, vapor, or glass, and some can even change their composition at will. (Mistform Warchief) Illusions can have a wide range of abilities, including morph, flying, phasing, and shadow. Illusions are most often blue aligned and sometimes black aligned, but they can be of any color.
