These most unusual spellcasters are students of illusionary magic whose cognitive powers are much higher than the typical character. The imagination and creativeness required of illusionists astounds the onlooker, as this class and its magic is unusually rare indeed — which perhaps explains why those of this class often turn to a reclusive life, the most powerful using illusion to conceal themselves.
Identifying themselves as passionately interested in the esoteric arts, illusionists are most likely to be found studying in libraries, experimenting in laboratories, probing the characteristics of the natural world as scientists or conducting inquiries into the nature of the mind. Possessed of such high intelligence, they are rarely distracted by the ordinary day-to-day activities of common folk.
