Now I sorted yout all that cursing business there's another potential problem.

While in the grave yard in the dwarven dungeon I took a lot of hits from some ghosts

My character has been aged by 47 years!

Will this be a big deal?

If yes, what should I do?


May thy widom be omnipresent!

Unnatural aging is a real problem for short-lived races (trolls, orcs) but can be ignored by long-lived ones (gnomes, elves). If you look at your character background, it will give an age in years and a description of what that means. If you're still "young" or "grown-up", then the unnatural aging isn't causing you any trouble yet. Being aged to "middle-aged" or older will lower your physical stats (St, Dx, To, Ap and Pe) but raise your mental stats (Le, Wi and Ma).

To cure unnatural aging, drink potions of youth, preferably blessed. They're quite rare, but can be made with the Alchemy skill.

Potions of longlivity will also help short-lived races seeng as they increase your life-expectency (you can take more aging before you die).

Thanks guys...

Luckily I'm a grey elf so I guess it shouldn't be too much of a problem yet...

Don't have the alchemy skill though...I'll look out for the potions
