Spell        :   Facade
Class        :   Illusionist
Cost         :   30
Casting time :   4 rounds
Spell type   :   Illusion
Syntax       :   cast facade <short>:<long>
Examples     :   cast facade dispel (to end the illusion)
                 cast facade a dark forest:Hardly any light pierces 
                 through the dense foliage. Trees loom high overhead,
                 swaying gently in the breeze.

This spell causes the room where it is cast to appear to be
a completely different room, as specified by the caster. The
illusionist can specify a new short description and a long description.

The short description can be a relatively short description, for example:
'a dark forest' or 'Inside a building'. This is the description that
the viewer(s) will see with the 'glance' command and when they first
enter the room.

The long description can be a bit longer, and would describe what the
viewer(s) see when they typed 'look'.

Because illusionists are masters of deception, they can easily
dispel the facade of another illusionist. In other words, any illusionist
can dispel any facade.

For obvious reasons, the exits of the room cannot change. The
directions will still be the same as the real room, as well
as the destinations of those rooms.
 
Also note that only valid characters are allowed in the descriptions.
Obviously the colon (:) is only used to separate arguments, and
otherwise only alphanumeric (0-9,a-z,A-Z,<space>,_,etc) are valid.
