/*:://////////////////////////////////////////////
//:: Spell Name Mislead - Heartbeat
//:: Spell FileName PHS_S_Mislead_x
//:://////////////////////////////////////////////
//:: Spell Effects Applied / Notes
//:://////////////////////////////////////////////
    Actions you can give it as a henchmen is "Follow" "Do nothing (stand ground)"
    "Attack (Pretend to attack)".

    As the spell says. This can be done in part (but never perfectly, it is
    a real-time computer game).

    The illusion is a CopyObject() of the person. It has full consealment against
    attacks and is plotted.

    A temp effect is added so the illusion can be dispelled.

    An additional, a heartbeat is added to the copy so it can do actions (fake ones).
