I believe it's an elliptical clause.

thank you and what about this one:Headed by a senior, the group drew up rules for School Spirit Week.
i think its nominative absolute??
or prepositional phrase with a gerund
Which words are italicized?
senior
The single word, senior is the object of the preposition "by."
so it would be nominative absolute??
No.
Are you sure there are no other italicized words?
i think it could be: Headed by a senior,
its past participial phrase
Yep. {Shaking head!}
Headed by a senior is a past participial phrase. It modifies the subject, "group."
i have one more :The hero falls in love with a countess (who is very beautiful).
its adjective clause?
Yes,
