Description
Whether through complex alchemical processes hidden in secret manuscripts, or through a dark pact, some few men and women seems to age much slower than usual.
In the Middle Ages, the average lifespan was short: many died in childhood, and even those who survived rarely lived past forty or fifty years. Yet the rare figure who carried Eternal Youth might walk among men for decades longer, their face unwrinkled, their body unbent by age, appearing forever in the strength of their youth even as their years stretched far beyond their peers.
Every time this Prowess is used, the lifespan of the character is extended by several weeks, though this has no direct combat or strategic impact. Its effect is primarily cosmetic, allowing characters to remain vigorous and youthful long after age should have taken its toll.
When using Eternal Youth, the player may also roll a die 6.
- On a result of 5–6, the Prowess emulates the effect of Heal.
- On a result of 1–4, nothing happens (apart from the increase of lifespan), and the Prowess is nonetheless used.
