Powers and Abilities
Illusion Casting: Mastermind is a mutant with the power of illusion casting. He can psionically cause other people to see, hear, touch, smell, and/or taste things which do not actually exist. For example, he can seem to make a solid wall appear in an empty space. He can also cause people to see, hear, touch, smell, and/or taste real things in ways that they would not do naturally. For example, he can make himsel flook and sound like a different person or look and feel like a wall or even seem invisible. Since his power only affects the mind, his illusions cannot be recorded on film, tape, or by other means. However, his power works so strongly on the mind that even if his victim or victims know they are being subjected to an illusion, they will still react to the illusion as if it were reality unless they can rid themselves of all suspicions that it is indeed reality. Hence, if Mastermind creates the illusion of a wall, most people, even if they know it's an illusion, will still be unable to walk through it. Invariably, Mastermind's illusions are so realistic that most people are unable to help having the feelign, at least subconsciously, that they are not illusions but reality.
 * Limited Memory Manipulation: Mastermind can use his illusions to re-write the memories of impresionable minds, such as children. This process is often flawed, however.
 * Special Limitations: Everyone within the range of his power, which can extend over an entire city, will see his illusions.
