Illusion - Spell Purpose
Illusion spells are spells that don't do any direct harm, but are meant to affect the senses by altering how those senses perceive the environment. These spells can alter what is seen, heard, smelled, touched, and tasted and some of the more obscure spells can affect senses not normally associated with humans.

Illusions may have physical components to them, but they are always temporary and always frail with the possibility of being dispelled by a simple test or mere disbelief. The illusion of a giant statue made of diamond barring the way into the castle is different than a real, solid diamond statue barring the way into the castle. The first is much easier to bypass once the illusion is discerned.
