I am sorry if this does not fit the Content Revision board: I am actually in doubt on whether it should be posted here (CR) or on the Q&A board. Anyways, I've come to notice a thing: several pages on the category of powers and abilities are highly detailed on the branches of a power, its applications and users of different applications and degrees of complexity, however illusionary powers — as in Illusion Creation — are lacking a richer description when, damn, it's a VASTLY useful power!
If you all watched Naruto, you can see how something such as Kotoamatsukami is an illusionary technique able to fool even one's beliefs, such as making them think apples are blues and be unable to be convinced otherwise. This isn't necessarily going "away" from illusions and into Mind Manipulation , but rather the way an illusion doesn't need to stop at the senses: we can have illusions of beliefs, morale, desires, feelings and their causes... even Memory Manipulation is a branch of nicely applied illusionary powers. Further, there's nothing on the common limitations off illusions: how they tend to require/be set off by "triggers" such as real/normal stimulus to the target perception (such as having one's voice be listened in order to be able to manipulate a target's hearing), nor anything like that.
Lol, I personally love using illusionary powers on roleplays and have already made a combo between deeply subconscious illusions (to the point of changing the way the brain perceives and processes information) and medical alchemy to heal a girl who was deaf since birth, although I think something not done in mainstream media is off-topic.
So, huh... I'd like to ask you three things:
1. Should Illusion Creation be more detailed?
2. May we detail Illusion Creation?
3. How can that be done?
