Description

 * Illusion. This spell disguises one’s identity. The magician splashes water or cologne on the target’s face then makes a Spellcasting test against the target’s Mystic Defense. If successful, the target’s face changes to match a face envisaged by the magician— if he is copying a specific face, he must have seen that individual within the last month.
 * The target gains a +3 bonus to Disguise Self (and may use Disguise Self as a default skill if they do not possess it) or Charisma-based tests when trying to convince others of his false identity and attempting to persuade them to act according to that misperception. Any Interaction tests made against the target are considered Sensing tests (see Illusions, p.266). The spell only affects the target’s head and neck, including hair and ears. The maximum possible size difference between the target’s face and that being mimicked is 100 percent in any dimension—the magician must find another way to disguise obvious differences. The target’s voice is unchanged, so he must try to mimic the speech characteristics of the character whose face he has borrowed as best he can.
