Phantom pains

Name: Phantom pains

Element(s): Illusions

Cost: 55mp/ 100mp/ 170 mp

Effect: Once this spell is used Asmodeous is able to inflect extreme amounts pain to his target(s) that are within eye sight of his gaze. Mortifying the skin, tissue, and muscle, and can even break bones closest to area of the body that is closets too. This of course is a mere rouse as all the caster is doing is tricking the mind of his foe(s) that they are withstanding the actually pain by placing them in such a very realistic illusion  in their minds are thinking is real and setting off the different pain receptors in their bodies (either being set on fire, being crushed, someone’s beating them or whatever types of physical pain that is up to the rper). Depending on the target(s) will power and magical resistance the pain can vary as can the reactions of each person has to said pain but can cause extreme mental scars to a person. As long as Asmodeous can concentrate he can hold up the illusion indefinitely, if he can’t the illusions of pain fade three posts after its casted, if the person is still in his grasp the caster can stop the illusions for at a max of two posts to offer a break from the pain before resuming and not needing to recast. The effect appears to be a heat shimmer like effect if seen properly distorting the images of things as it quickly fires out from the caster toward the locations, making it very difficult to see.  

If Asmodous is closer to the target the more effective this is. At max range the base power of this is still the cost.

For 100 mp he can cast this over a large circular in front of him, hitting any target in that area. For 170 mp this effect is sent in omni-directional around the caster in an larger area. He is free to not effect certain targets if he is aware of them being there.

There would have to be some type of sign that this is happening. Smog, light, something to let people know something is happening so it can be avoided.

Add a proxmisity effect for close up torture

In some cases if the defences are too weak or weakened then they can physical gain the injures they believing is occur as their mind’s perceive so intensely as real while still potentially badly scaring them mentally. As long as Asmodeous can concentrate he can hold up the illusion indefinitely, if he can’t the illusions of pain fade three posts after its casted.

Making the illusion potentially real isn't going to work in this case. You either give them the wound or not.

After being cast you don't need to worry about focusing. It's the equivalent of just leaving a mental wound.

edit out real damage

also I wanted a little bonus of being able to extend the spell's length to situations where I can freely torture a person without the distracting stuff of combat. Made the combat version the 3 post limit since in those types of stress I just want to cast the spell then get away type idea.

If you insist.

Approved.
