Category: Deception	Market Price: 25
Time: 10 minutes	Key Skill: Arcana
Duration: Permanent

You can capture the image of the site where you are standing and bind it into a crystal. Anyone peering into the crystal can see the a tiny version of the image, a by using this ritual on a capture-image crystal, you can create a full-scale image. An image recreated by this ritual is true in detail, but slightly transparent and obviously an illusion, fooling nobody but useful for conveying information. You can use an image crystal with Mirage Arcane or similar magic to recreate the scene more believably.

The size of the scene you can capture depends on the Arcana check:

Arcana Check Result	Area
9 or lower	Burst 2
10-19	Burst 5
20-29	Burst 10
30-39	Burst 20
40 or higher	Burst 40
