->'''Lamont Cranston''': What did you find out about that lot?\\
'''Margo Lane''': Not much. It was the site of the old Hotel Monolith. It was finished nearly 10 years ago, but it never opened.\\
'''Cranston''': The Monolith. I vaguely remember that.\\
'''Margo''': Seems that's the only way anybody remembers it. Before the hotel was completed, the developer went bankrupt and committed suicide. The last record is a sale to a Far Eastern buyer six years ago.\\
'''Cranston''': When was it torn down?\\
'''Margo''': It doesn't say. I made some calls this morning to newspapers and such. All anybody can remember is up to the time it was sold. Everyone seems to know that it was torn down, but they can't remember when or by whom.\\
'''Cranston''': Or '''if.'''\\

->With their mastery of shadows and illusion, and with their ability to divert attention, they can easily infiltrate organizations, get into and out of buildings without being seen, kill people and make it look like someone else did it, and generally confuse and perplex the public at large. The [[{{Whatevermancy}} Shadowmancers]] are relatively few but they are effective.
->It is almost impossible to identify a Magister of the Grey Order if he specifically does not want you to. That harmless old man with the travelling theatre company; the young woman who performs hackneyed illusions in the town square for money; the travel-stained Magister with the group of rowdy adventurers in the corner of the inn; the new initiate to some daemonic cult; the beggar, priest, merchant, noble, diplomat, or that battle-weary soldier — [[MasterOfDisguise the Shadowmancers can appear as almost anyone.]]

->Illusion, misdirection and terror whirl about the Shadowseer like a psychic tempest. With a subtle twist of the mind, these warrior mystics can erase the memory of the Harlequins from their enemies' thoughts, clouding their perceptions with confusion or horror. It is child's play for Shadowseers to [[JourneyToTheCenterOfTheMind bind their victims within the twists of their own minds]], engaging them in [[CurbStompBattle one-sided]] [[WizardDuel psychic duels]], or tricking their bodies into [[PsychicAssistedSuicide stopping hearts and choking off breath]]. Wherever the Shadowseer treads the battlefield, shards of illusory light and shadow blind the foe, while clouds of hallucinogenic gas send them into paroxysm of terror or bewildered joy. Discipline collapses, replaced by a bedlam of screams, gibbering and panicked, aimless gunfire. Warriors stagger drunkenly, slashing their blades and phantom foes. Through it all strides the Shadowseer - [[DissonantSerenity an island of sinister calm]] [[StrollingThroughTheChaos amid a raging ocean of madness]], robes swirling as their faceless mask reflects naught but the emptiness of the void.

->Chimerstry is an art of conjuration: the vampire may draw upon her inner reserves to bring phantoms to life; these false images can confound mortal senses and sensory equipment alike. If the Cainite's power is strong enough, illusions created by Chimerstry may even baffle the heightened senses of the vampire. [[TheTrickster The Ravnos]] are fond of using this power to seduce, swindle or enslave mortals, [[DealWithTheDevil effectively purchasing their victims' souls in exchange for a sack of bouillon that isn't there]].
