Re: Using an Illusion's Senses
In fact, I think you could argue that illusions are mass hypnosis, though perhaps not quite as we have them on earth:
"An illusion[s] ... effects are the product of the wizards mind and the minds of those who see the illusion" (p139). And
"The wizard himself must believe in an illusion to cast it - this is the kind of self-control required to become a mage" (p138)
"An illusory pit ... You cant really fall into it - but you can think you're falling" (p138)
Many examples of "no mind - no effect" situations...
And my touchstone here:
"General rule for GMs in such cases: The illusion behaves as though the world were exactly as its master thinks it is."
