Your head comes off! When this spell is cast, your head (or one of them, if you has several) comes free of its body, but continues to live on its own. You are not harmed, but the head takes falling damage if it is not carefully removed or caught! The head can talk, see, and control the actions of its body normally. If the head is somehow blinded (put in a bag, for instance), then it will have trouble telling its body where to walk.
The head has your DX and HT, HP/2, and Move and Dodge 0. It can bite at full ST in close combat. If the head is your seat of consciousness, your body fights as its ally. If it isn’t (for instance, if you have No Brain), it fights as an ally of your body.
The head may be reattached to the body by holding them in place for a second. Reattaching the head ends the spell.
Should the body die, the head lives on!

Personal Transmogrification
Keywords: None.
Full Cost: 75 points or more.
Casting Roll: None.
Range: Self.
Duration: Indefinite.
 
The caster transforms into an inanimate object of a similar weight. Clothing and gear weighing no more than his BL change with him. The caster may only learn the form of an object with which he is familiar. If the caster is destroyed, he immediately reverts to his native form (which will also be unconscious or dead).
The caster retains his intelligence, but gains all the physical attributes of the new form.

Personal Unbreakable Bones
Keywords: None.
Full Cost: 14 points.
Casting Roll: None.
Range: Self.
Duration: Indefinite.
 
This spell makes your bones nearly indestructible. Damage to limbs and extremities still causes injury, subject to the usual maximums, but the injury needed to cripple these body parts is twice normal; that is, the amount usually required to dismember. Crippling is at worst lasting; you never suffer permanent crippling or dismemberment (see pp. B421-422). Skull is similarly protected -  blows to the skull or eyes are treated no differently than a blow to the face (except that an eye injury can still cripple that eye). Injury that destroys the your body (-10xHP) breaks your skeleton.
Statistics: Injury Tolerance (Unbreakable Bones; Sorcery, -15%) [9] + Injury Tolerance (No Brain; Magical, -10%) [5].
 
Personal Vigor
Keywords: None.
Full Cost: 8.5 points/level.
