This is a collection of additional features for Enchanters, which have been researched and perfected within the laboratories of the Tower in the Spire.
To Pull The Wool Over Their Eyes
The first lesson of the stage magician is to only show the audience what you wish them to see. Whenever you cast a spell or use a feature which upon ending causes the target to know they have been magically affected, such as Friends or Charm Person, the target instead must make an Insight check at your spell save DC. If they fail, they are unaware of any magical tampering, conditioning, or trickery.
The Pledge, The Turn, The Prestige
Manipulative Wizardry, like stage magic, requires the Enchanter to work the crowd’s attention towards the showy flourish and away from the nitty-gritty inner workings of the trick itself. Whenever you cast a spell with Somatic components, you may make a Sleight of Hand check with a DC of 10 + the spell’s level. If you succeed, your Somatic gesturing is obfuscated by your stageman’s flourish. If you fail, however, your clumsy attempt to conceal your magic fails, and everyone knows that not only have you cast a spell, but also that you tried to hide it, likely for some nefarious purpose. In addition, you gain proficiency in Sleight of Hand. If you already have proficiency, you gain expertise instead.
