Spell description

With this spell the casterform his mind into a shadelike soul. He removes himself from his material body and must spend a round preparing for this removal. He must spend 1 day preparing his body through relaxing meditation. The soul created is controled by the caster as if it where an extension of himself.The soul is a noncorpreal creatured that can be used in one of 2 ways.

The first is as a scout. In this form nothing can block its progress except for an antimagic shell or similar spell. It has a movement rate of 60. This form has hp equal to that of the caster. If the scout is attacked it can attack back by hitting the target with a spiritual slap. The damage is 1 hp/ 2 levels of the caster. These hps are given to the soul in order to heal it wounds.

The other form is that of a possessor. The soul goes only after its intended victim (distinguished by the componets used) unless there is no way but to go through something else. As it tries to possess the victim get a saving throw at the level of the caster subtracted by the level of the victim. (exe. If a 19th level caster tried to possess a 15th level victim the save would be at -4). If the possession is successful the the caster assume the form of the victim until he willingly lets go or is forced out by a pshycic contest (explained in the psionic handbook). Its hp are the same as the casters plus 2 per level of the caster. In this form it can attack by using the same attack as the scout or by casting spells at half of the casters level, They both require a plus 1 or better weapon to hit.
