[@Vulkan]when I think illusions I think mirages or tricking the senses not right out modifying and/or probing the mind doe example making the enemy see a sword length of 3.5 feet when it's really 4 feet that would be tricking their sight but if hit with the hidden part they would know it's longer then they are seeing even if they don't know how long it really is, another is tricking them into thinking they got cut when they actually dodged, they are just tricking a sense but no mind modification is used, you also never responded to my concern of your chars mental instability
