History

A number of monsters had Teleport Self removed from their spell sets in 0.17.

Prior to 0.8, Teleport Self was also a level 5 Translocations player spell. It functioned just like any other source of teleportation, and the fact that it took up no inventory space almost made up for the fact that its miscast effects were potentially very lethal (banishment was not uncommon).
