You, and three other yous, step out from behind the pillar. You all smile as the assassin guesses wrong.

A number of illusory duplicates of you pop into existence around you. Because they appear instantly and practically on top of you, it is nearly impossible for onlookers to keep track of the real you. An image which takes any damage instantly vanishes (as does an image which leaves the spell’s range).

The images move at your speed, perfectly imitating your actions except for the direction they move. For example, if you cast this spell and then ran into cover, you could direct the images to follow or to run to cover of their own. If you turned and shouted at a guard, the images would turn and shout as well (even making noise as you do).

Enemies attempting to attack you or cast spells at you must select from among indistinguishable targets. Generally, roll randomly to see whether the selected target is real or an illusion. Any successful attack against an image destroys it. An image’s AC is 10 + your size modifier + your Dex modifier.

Augmentation:
For each extra spell point you invest, you can create an additional duplicate (up to a maximum total of 1d4 + [⅓ caster level] images).
