Everyone in this thread keeps referring to "Illusory Pit" or something like that and it's been months since I read the Dragon article where these powers appeared.The At-Will power is Illusory Ambush which has a range of 10 and does psychic damage and imposes a -2 penalty to attacks until end of next turn.Phantom Chasm is a daily power, an Area burst 1 with a range of 20 that does psychic damage and also immobilizes and knocks the target prone until the end of its next turn on a hit. On a miss it only immobilizes the target; it does not knock the target prone!With that information, considering it's a Daily power and the only one a 4th level Wizard has available, I'd let it affect a flying creature, Dragon or otherwise. I'm not sure I or any of my players would be mentally quick enough to come up with any of the various re-flavorings offered here right away but this is a psychic assault that should have some reasonable effect on a flying creature with a hit. While the dragon might take some damage if hit with the power and floats down & then falls because of the prone condition it's not likely "out of the fight" entirely. If the Wizard is lucky enough to pull this off it will be a very memorable fight for the party which is exactly what I'd be working towards for my players with a Dragon encounter! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:"  data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" /></blockquote>
