* MasterOfIllusion: Every magus specializes in a certain realm of magical application, or "art", such as Bayaz with fire and force, or Khalul with wind.

There are limits, however, as he seems unable to trick Eaters or fellow Magi, and warns Ferro that even under his cloaking magic she should not directly approach, linger near, or speak to someone she's trying to avoid.
