This would make it PreReq 5th.  Another change I need to make is that these can no longer be considered Potions. As potions are only distilled 1st-3rd level spells. These have to be actually considered Wondrous Items just as an Elixir of Love.As to cost the closest estimation using the pricing guide (SRD) is this.Single use, Use-activated, Continuous = Spell level x caster level x 2,000gp x ModifierWith Modifiers:  Spell effect is in rounds = X4  and  No space limitation = x2Thus Minor = (5th caster level * 3rd spell level * 2,000gp) = 30,000gp *8 = 240,000gpEven if you quarter this due to not having a serious game impact like a haste item, etc. – its still 60,000gp.Then compare this to other wondrous items such as a tome of clear thought +1 which is only 27,500gp.If we go with the 7,500gp per d12 we are looking at the following, which breaks down at the highest level – becoming cheaper than the current price.Minor = 7,500gp  (vs.3,600gp now)Intermediate = 22,500gp  (vs.10,800gp now)Major = 45,000gp  (vs.28,400gp now)Master = 75,000gp  (vs.85,200gp now)Not sure if this formula works that well. Others thoughts on pricing would be appreciated.Hmm. Not sure how I feel about this one. Reducing aging by a percentage would be a lot of bookkeeping. Figuring out the percentage of a race’s maximum age and then aging by that amount I think is too cumbersome.However, it could be worded in such a way as to say slow aging rates down.“This elixir dramatically slows the character's aging process, making the imbiber age at a reduced rate of only one year for every X years that pass for a duration of X years, after which they return to their normal aging rate. The entire elixir must be consumed to achieve the desired results. Each time one drinks an elixir of longevity, the imbiber must make a Fortitude saving throw (DC 10, +1 for each previous application of an elixir of longevity). A failed saving throw results in the effect reversing, and the imbiber instantly ages X years. If this age gain places the imbiber over their maximum age rage, they die instantly.”Where X = Used for the percentage strength of the elixir. For example X = 10 is aging one year for every 10.This also makes the penalty much more severe and would aid to lower the cost to something more reasonable.Examples:Elixir of Longevity (Minor):  This elixir dramatically slows the character's aging process, making the imbiber age at a reduced rate of only one year for every 10 years that pass for a duration of 10 years, after which they return to their normal aging rate.

Each time one drinks an elixir of longevity, the imbiber must make a Fortitude saving throw (DC 10, +1 for each previous application of an elixir of longevity).

If this age gain places the imbiber over their maximum age rage, they die instantly.Caster Level: 5th; Prerequisites: Craft Wondrous Item, slow, lesser restoration, 10 ranks of Craft (Alchemy); Market Price: 3,600gpElixir of Longevity (Intermediate):  This elixir dramatically slows the character's aging process, making the imbiber age at a reduced rate of only one year for every 25 years that pass for a duration of 25 years, after which they return to their normal aging rate. The entire elixir must be consumed to achieve the desired results. Each time one drinks an elixir of longevity, the imbiber must make a Fortitude saving throw (DC 15, +1 for each previous application of an elixir of longevity). A failed saving throw results in the effect reversing, and the imbiber instantly ages 25 years.
