Malleable Illusions. when the magician casts an illusion spell that has a duration of 1 minute or longer, he can use his action to change the nature of that illusion (using the spell's normal parameters for the illusion), provided that you can see the illusion. Illusory Reality. When the magician casts an illusion spell of 1st level or higher, he can choose one inanimate, nonmagical object that is part of the illusion and make that object real.

Structures in range take double damage and anything reduced to 0 hit points by this shatters and is destroyed (living targets are immediately killed). If the spell slot used was fourth level or higher the damage is increased by 1d6 for each spell level above third used. Magical Hats. The dark magician expends a Spell Slot of fourth level or lower, a number of illusory hats equal to the spell level +1 appear, one hat contains the dark magician, and one hat contains a spell of a level equal to the spell slot level minus 1 or lower.

The ultimate wizard in terms of attack and defense. At one point he was the magic teacher for the ruler of a desert kingdom before dying in a futile bid to destroy a powerful demon. His death has done little to stop his continued support for his liege's lineage and his own practice in teaching new apprentices magic. |
