Shades

Shades was an illusion spell that created semi-real duplicates of lesser conjuration spells.
==Effect==
The spell drew energy from the Plane of Shadow in order to create a semi-real duplicate of any conjuration spell of lesser power from the subschools of summoning or creation.
If the victim recognized the illusion, the shadow energy was a lot less effective than the duplicated spell. It was always less effective on objects, as objects were incapable of belief in the first place.
Shades was considered a more powerful version of the spells shadow conjuration and greater shadow conjuration, being capable of creating stronger illusions than both.
==Components==
Shades used verbal and somatic components only.
==History==
The spell was created by Netherese arcanist Shadow in and was originally called Shadow's shades.
==Notable Users==
The spell was under common usage among the assassins of the Jaezred Chaulssin by the 14 century DR.
