| Disjunction |

The pinnacle of power is not to wield it but to deny it. |

| Solipsism |
20 |
30 |
Few realise the true power of thought manipulation. Yes, you may cause someone to believe something is. However what if you made them think something isn't? |
The target cannot attack or be attacked as they believe everything but themselves is an illusion. Each round they may attempt a new defense, otherwise the spell lasts an hour. |
| Cast Aside |

Damage |
