Idolon

(eye-do-lon) The Illusionist, Veil of Illusion, The Deceiver

Summary

The mysterious Idolon has no true or fixed appearance apart from a pair of glowing eyes seen in the darkness or in the shadowy depths of a hood. It is capable of assuming any appearance, for Idolon is a power of illusion and trickery. Mages call upon it for aid in concealment and crafting cunning images.  
  • Cloak of Idolon renders the “wearer” difficult to locate and detect using magical means. It’s a known weapon in the arsenal of mage-killers, and sometimes used by magicians on the run to evade detection and capture.
  • Illusions of Idolon creates convincing hallucinations in the minds of the subjects, causing them to perceive whatever the caster wishes.
  • Veil of Idolon is a ward against scrying, rendering an area “dark” to magical means of detection. Some magicians Veil their sanctums and working areas as a matter of course, to safeguard against spies.
