This spell creates one clone, plus one for every five levels of the wizard, of the wizard. Each clone has hit points equal to the wizard's level, and all physical (non-spell) abilities of the wizard. The clones are completely loyal to the wizard (as their minds overlap in a way, with his own) and can carry out reasonably complex tasks (DM discretion). The clones are created wreathed in simple illusions which mimic the wizard's possessions, though they serve no other purpose, and can be discarded at the clone's will (as the clone may have real clothes or the like available). Due to the mental overlap of the clones with the wizard, while any are within 100 meters of the wizard, the following is possible:
•	The wizard can communicate telepathically with the clones.
•	The wizard will sense where the clones are, regardless of sight etc.
•	The wizard can cast memorised spells through a clone - the spells are cast normally, with the wizard himself performing all actions necessary to the casting (the clone can mimic these if desired), the only difference being the spell's point of origin, which is a clone (all effects use that clone as the caster).
•	The wizard can map a clone's senses onto his own, but when doing so, the wizard's sense that is being mapped over is not available (eg.: if the wizard maps a clone's sight over his own for five minutes, then he cannot see through his own eyes for those five minutes).
The material components are a number of pearls (each worth at least 500 gp) equal to the number of clones to be created (the number of clones created is equal to the number of pearls used, with an upper limit of one plus one for every five levels of the wizard), and a drop of the wizard's blood upon each pearl. At the completion of the spell, the bloodied pearls are flung from the wizard, and where each lands, a clone forms out of it.
