The illusion can show anything the caster can imagine, but it becomes drastically less convincing if viewed closeup, or from the wrong angle.

• Name: Nourish

The impling is bound to follow the casters instructions for an hour and is smart enough to speak and interact with intelligent beings or carry out multi step plans. The impling is only as strong and mobile as its small form would suggest however and is a coward, it wont sacrifice itself to complete its instructions though it will take risks.
  
  
• Name: Spiritgift
  Branch: White
  Description: A spell that functions as a ritualized method to offer a spirit a portion of the casters mana as a gift. The main purpose of this spell is to show respect to a spirit and get off on the right foot with them, it is by no means a charming magical effect, merely a courtesy that may grease the wheels of diplomacy somewhat.
  
  
• Name: Summon lesser slime
  Branch: White
  Description: The user summons a magical slime, an alchemical creature that resembles a head sized ball of elastic goo. Slimes are extremely bouncy and can reform if splattered or cut. By compressing itself the slime can launch itself aggressively at people to body slam them, dealing extremely modest blunt damage. Slimes are also sticky and can exert some level of grip through compression so they can hold things in place fairly effectively, though not enough to restrain someone.
