Accursed Triangle (VH)
Regular; Resisted by Will

　This curse ―― which affects anything with a “soul” (GM’s decision) ―― causes the caster to swap bodies with the subject, then shifts the caster’s mind into a mindless vessel in the environment (stone, tree, or similar), and then swaps the caster’s consciousness back into his original body while moving the subject’s to the object. This is instantaneous. The wizard isn’t out of body for long enough to suffer ill effects from the round trip.

　The subject’s body will live indefinitely ―― as a mindless shell with IQ 0 ―― if cared for, but the mind dissipates after a mere Will/3 seconds, rounded down. While the mind survives, it can use psi abilities, spells it knows well enough to cast without ritual, and so on, although it can perceive nothing and can touch only whatever its vessel is touching. After that time, the victim’s consciousness is gone.

　In theory, magic capable of reuniting a mind and a body, or allowing a mind to enter another body, can save the subject if cast in those Will/3 seconds. However, Possession and Soul Jar take a minute, Permanent Possession requires five minutes, and Exchange Bodies needs an hour. In practice, only high-Will victims with extraordinary skill levels (for time reduction) have much hope. Dispel Possession won’t work, as the subject isn’t possessed!

　This spell has an unpleasant drawback: On a critical failure, the would-be subject may place the caster’s mind and his own in his choice of the caster’s body, his own body, and some random vessel. Most targets imprison their tormentor in an inanimate object, killing the wizard in Will/3 seconds. Some also hijack the caster’s body.

Duration: The spell lasts an instant, but the effects are permanent unless reversed in seconds.
Cost: 13.
Time to cast: 10 seconds.
Prerequisites: Magery 3 and Exchange Bodies.
