Message: <blockquote data-quote="Al" data-source="post: 75584" data-attributes="member: 2486">There are actually a fair few ways of longevity through the books already out...but you have to look hard(ish)Lichdom: (Monster Manual): The classic.  Great for the big scary evil boss.Pros: Tons of bonuses, very few strings attached.Cons: Messes up the social agenda a tad.  Undead vulnerabilities.Reincarnation: (Player's Handbook): The Reincarnation spell creates a new YOUNG ADULT body, so simply cast on the aged incumbent and make a new adult.  I think this can't be cast on those who died of old age, so kill character first just before aging death.Pros: Low-level spell, easy process.Cons: -1 Level, Could come back as something undesirable.Clones: (Player's Handbook): Clones created in your youth can be activated on your death, of old age or if n/a use tactic detailed above.  Pros: Assuming you maxout level 20 at young age, little negative impact.  100% guaranteed.Cons: -1 Level, XP Cost.Mind Switch (Psionic's Handbook): Find unlucky young victim.  Switch minds.  Kill victim.  Keep body.Pros: Quick, harmless (to you) and efficient.  Could end up with better physical stats (switch with a top level barbarian?)Cons: Negate Psionics.Polymorph Other (cast by someone else on you) (Player's Handbook): Tell them to Polymorph you into a young XPros: Quick, cheap and (hopefully) reliable.Cons: Average physical stats.  Dispel Magic.  Trusts person doing the Polymorphing (although if you have a handy cohort this is OK)So there's five ways.  There are probably more.</blockquote>
