Astral Seed

You weave together strands of astral ectoplasm into a crystal containing the seed of your living mind. This seed has 10 AC and 1 hit point. You can only have one astral seed in existence at any one time. This seed remains inert until you die. If you are killed at any time, your soul is transferred to the astral seed and it begins to glow dimly.   Upon transference, your physical remains (should they still exist) become inert matter and cannot thereafter be restored to life. The transfer from the slain body to the astral seed works over any distance, including on other planes of existence.   Once your soul is transferred to your astral seed, you have the abilities of a psicrystal, plus all the powers you had prepared and maximum psi points you possessed when you died. You have thirty days to grow an organic body, after which your sentience fades and your soul passes on if it hasn't entered a new body.   To grow a body, you must spend ten days in uninterrupted solitude. The body's constituent parts are pulled as ectoplasm from the astral plane, then slowly molded and transformed into a living body that is an exact duplicate of your body at the time you manifested astral seed. As the tenth day ends, your astral seed merges with your new body and you completely inhabit the new body.   If your body is struck for any amount of damage while growing, it is destroyed and your soul passes on.
