Not just the obvious senses. IMHO *everything* in Glorantha can be illuded to (sorry bout that :-) This includes any feat or affinity, any relationship (!), anything physical or spiritual (eg. illusory POW in RQ3 sense). Given that illusion is not a widely practised art/effect, many of the more powerful like relationship to a god may not be easily learn't (only from Eurmal or even Tyleana (sp!?)).
