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.

Famous quotes containing the word illusion:
“In April 1917 the illusion of isolation was destroyed, America came to the end of innocence, and of the exuberant freedom of bachelor independence. That the responsibilities of world power have not made us happier is no surprise. To help ourselves manage them, we have replaced the illusion of isolation with a new illusion of omnipotence.”
—Barbara Tuchman (1912–1989)
“An illusion which is a real experience is worth having.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“I hadn’t an illusion in my handbag
About the people being better there
Than those I left behind. I thought they weren’t.
I thought they couldn’t be. And yet they were.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
