Healing salves are exactly what I need to make him viable. Thanks for the tip.
As a 7th level character (Bbr3/For4) he has AC of 25 (dwarven plate) and +15/+10 attack bonus with an adamantine greatsword. Plus rage, fast movement, DR, SR, and a few bits and pieces. Fort +13, Ref +7 and Will +9, and 97 hit points. So his survivability is okay.
I'll discuss the magic destruction element with the DM. Not getting spells could be okay. And with the +13 Fort save I'm willing to take my chances on the ability drains. Particularly as you usually don't have a choice anyway!
