I think that you do Trixie a disservice, Mike. Illusion is, in some ways, the most profound power of all. Control the perceptions of your foe and it doesn't matter whether what you are doing is real or not. They'll react appropriately either way! If it looks like a dragon, sounds like a dragon and smells like a dragon, a pony will react as if they are facing a dragon. Whether or not there is anything  there except a complex illusion spell is essentially irrelevant.

"Every warrior brings into battle his or her greatest hopes and fears. By bolstering those hopes and calling on those fears, you may make a weak force strong and turn an overwhelming force into a disorderly, panicked rout."
