These rare and enigmatic spellcasters, masters of illusionary magic, possess cognitive abilities far beyond those of the typical individual. The sheer imagination and creativity required to wield their craft sets them apart, making their abilities both bewildering and awe-inspiring to those who witness them. The scarcity of illusionists perhaps explains their tendency toward reclusiveness, with the most powerful among them using their own illusions to shroud themselves in secrecy, withdrawing from the mundane world into a life of study and introspection.
Drawn to the esoteric, illusionists devote themselves to intellectual pursuits, often found buried in ancient tomes, conducting alchemical experiments, or unraveling the mysteries of the natural world with a scientist’s precision. Many turn their inquiries inward, exploring the nature of perception and the mind itself. Their exceptional intelligence and disciplined focus leave them largely indifferent to the ordinary concerns of common folk, as they seek understanding on a level that few could ever hope to grasp.
To Become a Illusionist
The primary attribute of the illusionist is intelligence. Illusionists may be gnomes and human.
To become a illusionist, a character must have these minimum ability stats:
| Level | Max. X.P. | HD | Level Title |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 0 | 1 | mesmerizer |
| 2 | 2,251 | 2 | minor trickster |
| 3 | 4,501 | 3 | trickster |
| 4 | 9,001 | 4 | master trickster |
| 5 | 18,001 | 5 | cabalist |
| 6 | 35,001 | 6 | visionist |
| 7 | 60,001 | 7 | phantasmist |
| 8 | 96,001 | 8 | apparationist |
| 9 | 145,001 | 9 | spellbinder |
| 10 | 220,001 | 10 | illusionist |
| 11 | 440,001 | 10+1 | high illusionist |
| 12 | 660,001 | 10+2 | master illusionist |
| 13 | 880,001 | 10+3 | grand illusionist |
Multi-classed illusionists must have a minimum intelligence of 15. Illusionists gain no experience bonuses. The table shown describes the necessary experience to claim each level of the illusionist, gaining hit dice and further abilities. Each level above 10th requires 220,000 additional experience. Illusionists gain 1 hit points per level above 10th, but as this is not an increase in hit dice, further constitution bonuses are not accrued. Illusionists cannot progress beyond 26th level.
Illusionists receive illusionist cantrips & spells at each level. They also possess unique combat abilities and sage abilities. Players wishing to become a illusionist should familiarize themselves with these characteristics.
