[QUOTE="ThePolarBear, post: 7019030, member: 6857451"] Yes and No. I mean, the bucket is fine, but the loud noises, as presented, no. It has to be something visible. You can make a gigantic (well...10 foot) ringing bell however. Not without other abilities/powers Apart from the visible part, you also have to remember that you have to know what you are going to make the target believe is happening. As the example above if you do not know the "boss" in question, there's nothing you can do about it. And no, won't spoil my secrets :P If you know the person you are trying to replicate, you'll end up with a very repetitive static lieutenant. Unless you add some spice to it (like "running towards the end of the street shouting "there's a riot! All men! To me!") i would have the target stand there rationalixing as of why the lieutenant does not move. It's not automatic as the target percieves the illusion as real with all senses. However in said above stationary lieutenant might trigger the investigation check since an action the target might take is "i try to check if my officer is feeling well or has a fever", making it count as "investigating" the illusion. On the running riot example the check would likely happen when the target reaches the end of the street and the officer disappears or if the soldier asks for further informations on the riot. Different uses. Both powerful. Possibly. Again, spice it up with me and you are good to go. "Lava" chains is not really cutting it tho... Red hot ones might work better. I've always played that unless this kind of illusions can make something appear, but not something else disappear. This case would both fall into something that's not "visible" (it's below ground) and even then it would be rationalized as "oh i'm lucky the trap did not spring!" for me. [/QUOTE]
