Illusionist

Overview
Trick your enemies until they die! With Illusionist, your enemies won't even know what hit them. This is an Expert Mode class; although the skills seem simple enough to use, it will require smart decisions to make the most of it.

Grand_disappearance_icon.png Grand Disappearance/Appearance (8 turn cooldown) Grand_appearance_icon.png
Activate Grand Disappearance to "disappear" 10-30 spaces backward (player's choice on distance). The skill then turns into Grand Appearance, which can be used immediately to "appear" on the previously held space. At the latest, the game will automatically activate Grand Appearance during your next Effects Phase.

Deadly_illusion_icon.png Deadly Illusion (8 turn cooldown)
Covertly send any one player a Deadly Illusion, which looks just like the real thing...but isn't. Attempting to use this item will result in instant death. As it is an illusion, it is possible to see doubles in the inventory (it will not replace the real item if it is already present). It also will not show up in item combining menus. Possible options include:


 * Hammer
 * Potion
 * Gun
 * Teleporter
 * Space Capacitor
 * Hypno Glasses
 * Liquid Luck
 * Lasso
 * Time Travel Condom
 * Explosive Sheep
 * ACME Pogo-Stick
 * Chicken
 * Signal Jammer
 * Banana
 * Magic Star

Magic Hat (1 turn cooldown)
Use the Magic Hat to store or retrieve an item. The Magic Hat can keep up to two items safe for you. Items inside the hat act as if you do not have them in your inventory (allowing you to "hold" multiples of an item).

Hallucination (passive)
When another player attempts to use a Hammer, Sword, or Lightsaber on you, there is a 50% chance you dodge it and move forward 1 space.

Strengths

 * Illusionist can be a very aggressive class once in the lead.
 * Melee weapons have a harder time striking down an Illusionist.
 * Magic Hat can keep useful items safe until you need to use them.

Weaknesses

 * Illusionist doesn't really have any forward movement in their skill set.
 * Other players can spot the Deadly Illusions and avoid using them, or deliberately use them while buffed with Blessing of Vengeance.

Strategies

 * Magic Hat can keep an item safe, allowing for later use. Notable items include the Chicken, parts of the English Breakfast, or duplicates of any particularly useful consumable item like Magic Star.
 * Grand Disappearance can be used to protect against being moved backwards. It can also be used to attack somebody behind you by jumping to their space and using items from there.
 * Deadly Illusions will kill anytime they are clickable. This includes using them in encounters like Pawn Shop or Archaeology Dig, so try slipping something you think a player will need right when they're about to need it.  Timing is key.
