guaranteed anti aging...?

[baby-eater]

So, the drakish beastfighter I'm playing ran into a tension room of ghosts in the dwarven halls, oh boy! Now he has 50 years of unnatural aging...putting him at 76, a dangerous place considering drakelings get 60+8d4 years of life. I could be knocking at death's door now, or very soon. This is blocking my progress (as I have no intention of attempting the CoC graveyard in such a state)...so, is there any non-wish/guaranteed way to generate potions of youth, or reverse aging effects, because otherwise I fear it may soon be curtains for this drakeling.

I think aging monsters don`t see invisible, so if you have some potions of invis or other items granting invisibility you may pass graveyard safely.

Oh, and only anti-aging things I`m aware of are pools (but they can also age, so not really safe), and potions (I think potions of youth/longevity are common recipes in alchemy, so you might want to wish for it once you get a wish).

There is nothing guaranteed. If you get alchemy (worth a wish sometimes) then you can learn a recipe that might be easy to do. Otherwise your only hope is to find some potions of youth and longevity - pickpocketing helps.

However, don't despair - there are some important things to consider. Firstly much of the CoC graveyard can be bypassing quickly. Secondly if you have a means of invisibility then no ageing creature can see you, and so they can be avoided completely.

Ooh, so invis works, that's good to know. Now to find a source of near permanent invisibility! And then to the potions!

edit: walked immediately into a ghost after posting this and died of old age. -.-

Finaly, a beastfighter will actually have a use for that
quarterstaff of devastation he is bound to find. To aid
in walking.

I have to say you really need to learn some lessons in missile combat and getting decent PV. Ghosts aren't normally that much of a threat unless you fight them very recklessly. I mean really, as a drakeling you could at least go Coward and spit them to death.

Or it was a dark room and an out-of-depth ghost lord. By the time i found out what was "passing very closely beside my head" it contacted and pushed my age over the lifespan.

Ah, the wonders of the RNG - commiserations

[baby-eater]

It certainly is like the petal picking game we played as children: She loves me...She loves me not...

[Grey]

Except every now and then the petal spontaneously combusts and burns our arms, scarring us for life. Yet we still keep coming back to this abusive lover
