GM (if Munchkin is a Dipsomancer): Accrue two Major charges. Spend
those Major charges to permanently switch bodies with Abel.

...otherwise...

GM: Kill Eponymous, then find the godwalker of the Merchant, and
persuade him to broker a deal such that you can take over Abel's life.

IMAO, replacing Alex Abel is one goal, stealing all his money is
aother, and taking over TNI is a third. Thus, to do all three should
be triply hard.

Excellent ideas; I wasn't too sure how numbers-oriented I wanted that
spell to be. Cool.
