Oath: Visionshaper/Old Visionshaper

==Description==
Oath: Visionshaper is one of the 14 obtainable Oaths in Deepwoken. It allows one to utilize the power of illusions with a pact made with The Nestmind to quickly and effectively overwhelm their enemies in various ways. It is the opposing Oath to Blindseer.
Visionshaper as an ability is the power to make illusions reality, one granted by a Vow the user makes with The Nestmind, allowing them to bring Deep Owls into reality by simply imagining them being real. The Visionshaper pact is a malevolent one however, as once a certain amount of time has passed, the Deep Owls devour the Visionshaper's mind, killing them. This has no reflection in game, however.
== Obtainment ==
*Meet the following requirements:
**50 Charisma
**Complete Aelita's Encounter in Valley of Heroes at least once
**Have a Dark Feather in your possession
*Find Surge, located past the Widow Cave in The Depths. 
*Give him a Dark Feather. Surge will become OwlSurge. 
*When you leave the area, you will find yourself in A Conscious Intersection. 
**Talk to the Nestmind, ensuring you select the first options. Select "I accept" once it mentions food.
**Refusing to become the Nestmind's food will steal your dark feather and teleport you back.
**Do not fall. You will be sent to Layer 2.

**The cooldown is 2 minutes 40 seconds.
**Entities within the realm, indicated by an aura of white feathers, cannot interact with entities outside, and vice versa.

==Trivia==
*The Mental Fortress Talent, Disbelief, only affects Illusory Servants, reducing the amount of time they last by half.
*This Oath was created by Dexerius, along with Arcwarder.
*You can craft a Void Feather using 3 Dark Feathers and 1 Umbral Obsidian. Non-Corrupted Deep Owls can also rarely drop them. Also Illusion counter cancel fall damage with tough timing.
*Dexerius based this Oath on the hit anime 'Naruto' based on the visionshaper clones being based off shadow clone jutsu and genjutsu. As well as the realm being based off the Kamui.
