I agree that schools of macick should be built with the 
concept/paradox as the first consideration. This one 
sounds too much like Cryptomancy ("Make other people 
believe things that are false, but you can't tell them 
anyhing true".)
 

      I was wondering if anyone had come up with a
      school of general illusions.
      
    I've never done it, because that isn't the way I 
look at Magic in UA.  I've
    always started with the paradox/concept then worked 
from there.  I don't
    know how to build a school for an effect, it goes 
counter to how I look at
    them.  I have been giving some consideration to the 
school based on hair
    alluded to in PoMoMa.  And I'm also thinking of 
creating one based on
    hedonism.  You party to gain charges.  The paradox 
is that you have to
    "party" or you lose your charges.  You have to 
celebrate and "have fun" even
    if you don't want to...

    I just don't know what the magic does.
