I’m about to play a gnome illusion wizard and I’m researching (high INT!) creative uses for illusions.
A classic is an illusory wall to hide behind as enemies run past or cannot aim to you. Or make the pit seem to be somewhere else so they fall in as they charge you. Or fake allies for distraction.
We’re playing Pathfinder 2e as 1st level characters. So technically that means the wizard has Figment (Ghost Sound), Illusory Object, and Prestidigitation at his disposal.
There are probably some cool illusion stories in this community?
You can set up and win most bets or chicken races with illusions.
Like throw an illusionary pile of feed off of the path of your opponents chicken, so it’ll be distracted by it and let your chicken win.
Winning a bet can win you anything: from a free chicken dinner for your party, to getting into a party for free.
