Daggerfall:Illusion

The school of Illusion is one of the six avenues of magical study. This school works with magicka in its capacity to camouflage, illuminate, or obscure without changing an object's structure. Invisibility and Light are two of the school's most basic spells. Buying, creating, and casting spells of illusion are less expensive for mages skilled in this path.

This skill is increased at 2x rate.

Illusion's governing attribute is Willpower. The skill is checked whenever you cast a spell from the Illusion school of magic.

Illusion SpellsEdit

Spell	Element	Range	Magnitude	Chance of success (%)	Duration (in-game minutes)	Spell Effect(s)
Chameleon	Magic	Caster only	-	-	3 + 1/per level	Chameleon: Normal (dispelled when attacking)
Invisibility	Magic	Caster only	-	-	3 + 2/per level	Invisibility: Normal (dispelled when attacking)
Light	Magic	Caster only	-	-	1 + 4/per level	Light (in front of caster for duration of spell)
Shadow Form	Magic	Caster only	-	-	1 + 1/per level	Shadow: Normal (dispelled when attacking)

†Chameleon and Shadow Form are cheap versions of Invisibility. Chameleon only works when you are not moving, and Shadow Form only works indoors.

‡Invisibility is only dispelled when you attack an enemy physically, with weapons or hand-to-hand. If you instead attack an enemy with magic, the invisibility effect will not be dispelled; the enemy you just attacked with magic will now find and attack you, but additional enemies in the vicinity will not attack, as they will still be unable to detect you.
