This spell was devised by the archmage Montero the Sore Loser. It creates a special bond around the life force of the caster, waiting to receive another life force. If during the duration of the spell, the caster is slain, he dies alright, but so does his killer (no saving throw, magic resistance applies). At that point, both their life forces are connected with a special bond, so a long as the caster if still dead, his killer cannot be raised or resurrected. Once the caster if back to life, his killer may be brought to life as well. If the caster was slain in such way that prevents resurrection completely, the killer is also dead forever.
The material component of the spell is a medallion with a 5000 gp gem, which must be worn around the caster's neck. the medallion disappears once spell duration ends, or once it's activated. Its premature destruction ends the spell.
