Notes

  • Lasts 10 turns.
  • Illusion School Wizards can cast a special version of Minor Illusion as a Bonus Action.
  • Outside of combat, causes most NPCs to walk towards the illusion and surround it. This can be particularly deadly as a preparation for a first-strike ambush if you lure a number of potential targets into a small area, then hit them all with a Fireball.
  • During combat, this causes enemies to turn towards the illusion.
  • The illusion activates traps if placed on top of them.
  • If placed on top of a vent, the illusion prevents gas from coming out, just as if a physical item were placed there.
  • The illusion will disappear if the caster starts concentrating on another spell, but casting this will not break concentration for existing spells.
