Shroud of Deception allows the caster to disguise their appearance in an illusion. This gives them the ability to visually change their race, profession, or gender, as well as their physical features to match. The SHROUD verb may be used to customize to your appearance and you can set up to 3 different profiles to use. In addition, the spell can also mimic the functionality of Shimmer Trinkets to also allow the caster to customize their inventory listing. The SHROUD verb is only accessible if you know the spell or while the spell is active.
Outside of using a hostile action to cast a dispel, there are no planned methods to "defeat" an illusion. Casting Elemental Detection will only allow sensing of Shroud of Deception, not what attributes have been disguised.
This spell has a mechanical benefit of modifying trade modifiers based on the perceived race of the player.

[*] Profession allows you to select another profession's level based titles and uses your Minor Mental spell ranks to determine eligibility (e.g. to use the Warlock title, a level 70 Sorcerer title, it requires 70 Minor Mental spell ranks.
The Uncommon and Unique options unlock once the caster knows 50 Minor Mental spell ranks and allows you to override your complete appearance. Uncommon are a list of options to pick between and Unique is for a rare service ability to completely customize it yourself.
