The deadly phantom sphere, or sentinel sphere as it is called for its nigh-unyielding ability to keep watch over one's demesne, is an archaic torture device that has the power to kill your enemies. It requires a demesne to be larger than three rooms. Simply send it to your target's room and command it to attack. It will rest just inside your target's brain, and, on the fourth orb, you will feed it images so terrifying that your victim's heart will simply stop and they will drop dead. There is a chance with each additional sphere that the victim will spontaneously manifest a variety of mental conditions from the ghostly images. The illusion, being made of naught but your will, may also transform into illusory spears to shatter the shields of your enemies at a distance. Detonating the phantom sphere will harm all enemies in your room, doing even more damage to those with phantomspheres already afflicting them.
 
Notes: Your phantom sphere will be unable to attack your target if they are in your room.
 
As well, once your target leaves the demesne, their phantom spheres will quickly dissipate over time, so it is in your best interests to make sure they do not leave... alive.

Phantasms is an illusion specialization only for mages, which will allow the caster to summon a number of phantasms to do their bidding. Some phantasms allow the caster to steal the thoughts and vision of a target, and others allow them to weave a mirage over their entire demesne. Many of the skills have increased affects when used in their demesne.
