Illusion

The illusionists of the south part with the world they know to create their own. They boost the courage of others who lack them and foster joy in those who to those who have dreamt to start anew. They lead in the fantasy they so intricately fabricate, so much so, that even they find themselves deceived by their own illusions.

Illusion belongs to the six schools of magic–respected and feared by the very people who had been victimized by it. Its teachings surpass the laws of nature and the gaps of reality. Most of their magic, in actuality, revolves around the mind. For them, the mind is a very trifle thing meant to be experimented and played with. They do not try to search for the truth of their world but rather find a way to illusion it into something else. They are both creative and logical–creative to keep their spells active, and logical enough to keep them grounded into their own reality. After all, those who have gotten lost in their own illusions would forever be trapped inside the world they’ve created, never to be seen again.

Its teachings had originated in the Southern Canyons, where a group of illusionists has written spells as to how to relieve their village’s hunger and restore their strength. As soon as more and more people had heard of this magic, generals started using this on the battlefield, motivating their soldiers and calling them to arms by deceiving them of their own health and strength. Now, the magic of illusion has become the very foundations of every won battlefield and lost soldier, and it grew into the famous school of magic everyone knew of today. Mages from the Illusion School of Magic are known for their ability to induce hatred and love, take away the target’s senses, and even shift their line of sight.

However, there are limitations to what they can do. Their magic, unlike others, only affects the people they have targeted. It would also only last a short amount of time, depending on their strength and experience. Despite this, the ability to play with the mind is an extremely dangerous power–one that no one wants to play with. Illusionists should be very careful in giving and taking away what they can, for what they may take…they may never return.

Notable People from the Illusionary School of Magic

• Trixie Petrova – The illusionary mage who had controlled thousands of people to do her bidding. She lived in the mountains, where she had become the leader of her own cult–the Rovalis. It was the most mystifying practice of illusionary magic, as she had thousands of people deceived to believe that she was their queen, and they were meant to gobble at her feet. She had never really been caught, despite the numerous reports that she had. Many of them had only been a testament to her illusions. To this day, Trixie Petrova remained to be caught, having bested even the smartest illusionary mage on the battlefield.

• Ceris Alamo – An honorary member of the Illusionary School of Magic, Ceris Alamo had spent her entire life studying and enhancing her craft. She had empowered soldiers to cross the battlefields, despite the risk of their impending death. She had worked as one of the interrogators of the prison guard, tasked to remove the senses of their prisoners whenever they wished. Her most astounding accomplishment, however, was getting a hundred monsters to fall asleep, just enough time to get her troops out of danger. She still lived till today, writing books and journals treasured by many illusionary mages around the world.

• Draco Xali – Draco Xali–the most infamous man in the Southern Ridges. While he may lack in other aspects of illusion magic, he succeeded in the one spell that he had created himself–hysteria. The hysteria casting could bring their target to their knees, making them experience their worst nightmare come to life. Many feared him, to the point that even the police themselves had stopped investigating the man’s whereabouts. While Xali was believed to have died a very long time ago, his shadows still haunt the living.
