[QUOTE="Shemeska, post: 2805117, member: 11697"] A few comments: 1) The Incantifer PrC removing aging really has no relevant in game effect. It's not likely to be an issue in 99.99% of campaigns. 2) One change I'd make regarding the Incantifers, based on their original flavor, was that as I recall they had to consume a certain amount of magic over a given period of time in order to stay alive. Now in my campaign I ended up with the PCs entering the maze into which the Incantifers had been condemned, and it was obvious from that start that shortly after they had been mazed, they'd begun to starve and subsequently fallen upon one another in what amounted to magical cannibalism. After several thousand years (I altered the timeline) all that was left of them were two former factors of the Faction, one of them having become a lich and the other surviving off of the souls of the dead and pillaged magic items she was slowly devouring to stay alive. If you wanted to stay true to the Wanters / Eaters / Magicians / Incantifers you might have the PC have to devour spells, or item charges every so often to stay alive. Again, it wouldn't have terribly much impact in game. [/QUOTE]
