To be able to cast this spell, the "victim" must be frozen, eg. by a successful hold person. The caster must then place a piece of mithril in front of him, one behind of him, and one on both sides. A diamond must then be drawn between these mithril pieces, without touching the mithril once they have been placed. The wizard then casts the spell. No to-hit roll is needed, because the victim is frozen. An Intelligence check must be made, though. If successful, the victim assumes the form of a small mithril miniature. The mithril pieces are used up in the spell. If the miniature is sold, stolen, or possessed by anyone other than the caster, the spell is broken and the victim enlarges at a very fast rate, and the mithril pieces reappear - end of story. If the caster dies, the victim is freed as well. If the victim comes out of the hold person spell before this spell is completed, the casting failed. If the miniature is destroyed, broken, or melted, the victim dies.
