As a standard action, the ghostmaster can create an illusion in a 6 meter radius Muscle-Area area anywhere it can see: this illusion lasts until the ghostmaster creates a new illusion. As a move action, the ghostmaster can move its current illusion up to 25 meters in the direction of its choice, and also animate or otherwise change the illusion for a round. If another creature moves into the area of the illusion (the illusion moving to surround the creature does not count), or begins its turn in the illusion, the ghostmaster may make a melee Magic-Damage attack against that creature for 1d6+3 Cold damage (Magic Power included). As a lesser action, the ghostmaster may create rasping or whispering voice sounds from the illusion, or the sounds of screeching or rattling chains.

If the ghostmaster's current illusion is ever more than 200 meters from itself, the illusion disappears and the ghostmaster must create a new one.

The illusion is bound to the ghostmaster. It can be an illusion of anything the Ghostmaster can imagine, can block vision, but cannot be so bright as to generate bright light out to more than 10 meters.

The ghostmaster's illusions deal 1 less damage in bright light.
