While this power is active, you are surrounded in a fog of Arctic Air that dramatically slows the attack and movement speed of nearby foes. The chill of the Arctic Air is so bitter that many foes are forced to flee, albeit very slowly, from the immediate area.  Others may attack their own allies, as the fog from the Arctic Air is thick and can cause much confusion.  The cold air can also reduce the stealth capability of affected foes.
== Powers ==
=== [[File:Illusions_Blind.png]] Blind ===
Painfully Blinds a single targeted foe so severely that they are rendered helpless. Blind is so bright that additional foes may also be blinded, though they will not take any damage, and attacking them will free them from the effects.

=== [[Image:IceFormation_BlockOfIce.png]] Block of Ice ===
=== [[File:Illusions Decieve.png]] Deceive ===
 
You can Deceive an enemy into believing his friends are not who they appear to be. If successful, the enemy will ignore you and attack their own allies. If you Deceive someone before they have noticed you, your presence will continue to be masked. You will not receive any Experience Points for foes defeated by a Deceived enemy.
You can freeze a single foe in a Block of Ice. The target is frozen solid, helpless, and can be attacked. More powerful foes may not be held, but all affected targets will be slowed and take some cold damage.

=== [[Image:IceFormation FlashFreeze.png]] Flash Freeze ===
=== [[File:Illusions GiveInvisibility.png]] Group Invisibility ===
 
Makes you and all teammates around you Invisible. While Invisible, you and your teammates are almost impossible to detect. Even if discovered, Group Invisibility grants a bonus to your Defense to all attacks, although you will lose some of your defense bonus if you attack. Group Invisibility has no movement penalty.
You can Flash Freeze a large patch of ground beneath a targeted foe, instantly forming dozens of deadly ice shards that do cold damage to all enemies in the area.  The victims are left trapped within the icicles, but can break free if disturbed. Only targets near the ground can be affected.

=== [[File:Illusions Phantasm.png]] Phantasm ===
 
You can construct a powerful entity composed of pure light. Although made of light, the Phantasm is tangible and has powerful Energy attacks. The Phantasm can also fly and summon duplicates of itself. The duplicates are intangible, and cannot be harmed. The duplicates' attacks deal illusory damage similar to that dealt by Spectral Wounds. Only the original Phantasm can be healed and buffed. Type "/release_pets" in the chat window to release all your pets.
Immobilizes a group of foes in icy traps. Deals minimal cold damage over time and slightly slows the targets. Slower and less damaging than Chilblain, but can capture multiple targets. More resilient foes may only be slowed.

=== [[Image:IceFormation Glacier.png]] Glacier ===
=== [[File:Illusions PhantomArmy.png]][[File:Illusions PhantomArmy2.png]] Phantom Army ===
You can fabricate 3 Phantom heroes around a targeted foe. These Phantoms are not real, and are indestructible. Their attacks are similar to Spectral Wounds. Though they deal damage, it is illusory and will heal if the victim survives long enough. Phantoms are short lived and cannot be buffed or healed.


You can freeze all foes around yourself in blocks of Glacial ice.  The targests are frozen solid, helpless, and can be attacked.  Even after the victims emerge, they remain chilled and their attack and movement speed is slowed for a while.  This power can only be cast near the ground.
{{EdNote|note=The Phantoms have a strong taunting effect on critters.}}

=== [[File:Illusions spectralTerror.png]] Spectral Terror ===
You can create an illusion of unspeakable Terror. The manifestation is so horrible that it caused most foes to tremble helplessly in terror. The Spectral Terror may also Terrify individual foes, causing them to run away in panic.


You can create a large patch of ice at a targeted area, causing all foes that pass through it to lose their footing. Those caught in the Ice Slick are dramatically slowed and tend to fall down.

=== [[Image:IceFormation JackFrost.png]] Jack Frost ===
=== [[File:Illusions_spectralWounds.png]] Spectral Wounds ===
 
Spectral Wounds convinces the target that they have taken severe damage. The illusion is so convincing that the victim can fall from the Spectral Wounds. However, the damage is not real, and if the victim survives long enough, the illusion will fade and some of the wounds will heal.
You can create a very powerful entity of animated ice at a targeted location. Jack Frost possesses several ice powers to attack any nearby foes and can be healed and buffed like any teammate. Type ''/release_pets'' in the chat window to release all your pets.

=== [[Image:IceFormation Shiver.png]] Shiver ===
=== [[File:Illusions Invisibility.png]] Superior Invisibility ===
 
You can bend light around yourself to become completely Invisible. While this power is active, you are all but impossible to detect, and have an extremely high Defense bonus to all attacks. Superior Invisibility is the only toggle invisibility power that allows you to attack while it is active, although you will lose some of your defense bonus if you do so. Superior Invisibility cannot be used with any other self affecting Concealment type power.
You can blast forth a wide cone of chilling air that dramatically slows the movement and attack rate  of nearby foes.

** Damage caused by destroyed Weapons Caches and Containment Chambers in the [[Lambda Sector Trial]]
** Damage caused by destroyed Bunker doors in the [[Keyes Island Reactor Trial]]
