BTNSpectralHead

This one might be good for necrotic or mind spells.

Update 1: Completely reworked the icon and added 'upgrade' + 'attack type' versions.
Update 2: More saturated cyan shades and less empty-looking mouth, + a glowing mouth version attached to the first post.

The old (very first) version is still available in the first post below.

I think, you're used to my multi-colored icons :) In most cases I as well like those icon themes more, where I can use 2 or 3+ distinct colors, for with the right combination, they're more pleasing to the eyes. But here, the color scheme is rather given, like in case of holy and elemental spells.
As for the empty mouth; ..well, a skeletal head is usually pretty much empty :) But after you had mentioned it, I tried out a few things (putting light source in it, making the inside slightly visible, adding a breath-like effect) but I found them weird or incongruous. :S
In spite of this, I managed to improve it a little, so an update is coming. ;)
