When using Shroud of Deception (1212), there are going to 3 predefined unique options for casters to select between once they've learned 50 Minor Mental spell ranks. When they choose to use one of these options, it will completely override their standard LOOK appearance, similar to glamour crystals. For example:

>look Estild
You see a tall, shining silver knight.

or

You see a hooded figure.

What are some options that you guys would like to see? It needs to be reasonable. Specifically, taking on the appearance of a demon wouldn't fly since that's not acceptable in most towns.

GameMaster Estild

fun!

a filthy street urchin

a shoe-less wanderer

a red and black harlequin

an emoting mime

a primped lady-in-waiting

Exciting!

A question, does it have to follow the sentence structure in your example to work?

Or would an approach like this also be a possibility,
>look Estild
Your mind wanders and you fail to notice/remember any details about Estild.
>look Estild
Try as you might, your eyes can't focus on Estild.


Some other suggestions.

a nondescript humanoid/biped/creature
a looming/imposing brute/savage/clod
a common soldier/mercenary/conscript
a well dressed nobleman
a hunched, shabbily dressed pauper
an agile, rune-covered being


Since you are building 3 premade looks into the spell would that by chance give the possibility of a merchant service for a custom made 4th?
Looking forward to this spell, been trying to keep a TP reserve to jump straight to 30 MnM when this goes active to put the race and feature modifications to use.

>a primped lady-in-waiting

The first time I read that, I totally thought it said "pimped"...

Ahem. Don't mind me.

The description that immediately popped into my mind was something like:

You see a vague humanoid figure wreathed in mist.

or,

You see an insubstantial humanoid figure obscured by shadows.

For more real-looking images, what about:

You see a slender, elegantly attired aristocrat.
You see a scruffy, unwashed vagabond.
You see a bearded, glassy-eyed lunatic.
You see a white-robed young acolyte.
You see a wrinkled, hunched old man/woman.

Some simple ones:

a young <race> girl/boy
a fair-haired maiden/fellow
a middle-aged <race> gentleman/lady
a stooped old <race> man/woman


And of course:

a haggard matron

a blue monkey.

Did this ever become a thing?

Is this spell ever going to be implemented?

Obviously ignorant of the inner workings of the code, but externally it would appear that everything is in place given the semi-frequent selling of items from merchants with abilities to alter the appearance of the user.
