Illusion

Illusion is a horned evil paranormal creature known as Imperturbator. He serves as Evil Bob's loyal pet, and is the secondary antagonist of the story overall.

## Profile

### Appearance

Illusion appears to be a strange creature with a normal round shape. He has simple black dots for eyes, and sharp fangs, commonly seen with his smile. He also has two large curved horns, one on each side of his head. He has no arms, but has two large feet to compensate for it.

### Personality

Illusion is as evil as his owner, sharing the same hate for the same people. Example: Evil Bob really hates Bob, that makes Illusion really hate Bob too. He is the most loved being by his owner. Despite his lack of arms, he can still bring pain to his enemies by using his large feet. Illusion seems to not be able to talk in a human language, although he speaks in his own language, which comprises of growls and roars. Only beings of darkness are able to understand what Illusion is saying, Evil Bob being one of them.

### Powers

Illusion does not appear to have any kind of magic powers normally, but he has an immense physical strength to make up for it. Most notably, his jaws and his feet are what causes the most devastating damage, with the former piercing through skin and crushing bones with ease, and the latter causing immense damage. Illusion is also very agile and very wild, making him a force to be reckoned with, and making him almost as dangerous as Evil Bob himself.

## In-Game

### The Return of Evil Bob

Illusion makes a brief appearance in this game as a boss. Near the end of the game, while the heroes are chasing Evil Bob, he sends Illusion to fight them. After he is defeated, he doesn't appear anymore.

### Siblings To The Rescue

Illusion first appears in the last room of the Danger Domain, alongside his owner. He then fights Sarah and Will after Evil Bob introduces him. After he is defeated, Evil Bob accuses the pair of Animal Abuse, and then leaves.

Illusion appears again later, near the end of the game. He decides to fight the pair once again, but after Evil Bob tells him they are too strong, Illusion absorbs the legendary artifacts and becomes a huge monster, serving as the final boss of the game. In battle, he uses the artifacts for element-based attacks, which have their strong points and weak points.

After he is defeated, Evil Bob gets mad at the pair for beating up his pet twice, and they both teleport away. Illusion is not seen again after this.

### Crossed Fates

Crossed Fates marks the first time Illusion appears without his owner alongside him. He's first seen in Dusty Dry Desert after he hunted down Mia all the way, aiming to possibly kill and eat her. He is fought by her, Addison and Lisa, and eventually loses, growling for a moment before running away.

Illusion appears again near the end of the game, temporarily allied with Tetsuya, as the latter somehow hired him to take care of Addison, Mia and Kenny, alongside Maximillian and Kendra. Nevertheless, he's defeated again.

As Lisa is having her final fight against Tetsuya, Illusion rebels against Tetsuya for not only being denied the promised reward for working for Tetsuya, but also for getting him beaten up. Therefore, he helps Lisa fight against her evil brother.

After Tetsuya is defeated via a huge explosion, Lisa goes missing. However, Illusion is able to locate her thanks to her scent. When the others bring Lisa to the hospital, Illusion manages to get a free ride from Kendra back to Dalshire City, while laughing at Maximillian for being denied the same ride because of him being a human. Illusion does not appear again after that.

### Sinful Rising

Illusion appears in Sinful Rising as seemingly on the same side as the protagonists at first, but it is quickly revealed that he's the secondary antagonist of the game.

During the beginning, after Evil Bob is introducing each of the Sins to Sloth, she notices Illusion stalking in the back and asks who he is. Evil Bob proudly introduces him as well and claims he would be able to take down all of the Sins even if they were working together.

Weeks (or perhaps months) later, after it was revealed that Evil Bob and Illusion don't really care for the Sins, Illusion follows Evil Bob wherever he goes, unwilling to leave his side, including visiting Sloth in the Sins' tent so his owner can give her a mission, while also being ordered by him to attack her when she acts unwilling. Illusion is also there when Evil Bob discovers the uprising and destroys Dove Plains, being proud at his owner's skill to easily destroy a previously beautiful place.

Once the Sins make their way throughout their evil ruler's lair, Illusion stops them just short of Evil Bob's throne room and engages them in a fight, where he once again showcases how brutal he can be. Nevertheless, he fails in his task of killing them and shamefully retreats back to his owner.

In the throne room, Illusion watches from a distance as Evil Bob fights the Sins, but ultimately seems to lose, quickly regaining his smile when his owner kills Sloth with no remorse. As he's ordered to stay away from their last fight, he obliges, running a distance away to give them some space. However, when he notices that his owner is losing the fight, he butts in and tries to help him kill the six remaining sins. He is defeated again, soon followed by his owner, who is forced to revive Sloth and free the sins before walking out in shame. Illusion gets up, takes one last look at the sins, and runs after his owner, only seen again during the credits after that.
