The mage summons an illusion made of solid darkness. The effect looks, sounds, smells, tastes, and feels completely real. One could summon the scent of roast turkey, the sound of laughter, the image of a loved one, the taste of a fine merlot, or the touch, the feel of cotton. The mage can change and control the illusion just like a puppet for the duration of the spell. Even though the image may seem real, it can't cause any damage. Light produced cannot blind, sound cannot deafen, scent cannot sicken, and touch cannot harm — a target might feel such pain, but it's only in the mind. In addition, the illusion isn't functional; a false rowboat won't get you across a lake (you may feel dry, but you won't be), and a false wagon can't hold any goods (you'll be loading crates into the street). Any target interacting with the illusion can make a Lucidity save to realize its false nature. The Size of the illusion depends on the Intensity.
