About the items that stop ageing, they don't really help for an already old mages, do they?

For constructs, I read a comment somewhere that earth prolongs their life spans.

To keep your body young, do exercises, sport, etc. Don't sit too much, try to go somewhere by foot instead of driving a car.
To keep your brain young, it's good if you're fluent in two or more languages, like to solve puzzles and riddles, and play computer games.

Looks buggy to me, how could an undead "age" ? Or else it should have an old age set *extremely* high !

They should at least prevent any more limbs falling off, unless the mage is already diseased. But no, they don't reverse aging -- just stop it. Reducing age takes rejuvenation (or a new body!), unless there's some rare 'enter to reduce age' magic site.

500 years for a soulless? Longdead also have maxage 500, but they start about 200 years old it seems. The kind of liches are probably several thousand years old. I'd expect inanimate beings, at least, to be immune to Decay, so they won't reach that stage of decomposition very soon.

Good news for women: after you die you no longer have to worry about unsightly wrinkles!

P.S. Polypal Mothers (Aboleths: Early Era R'lyeh) don't get old until their 20,001th birthday. That's a loooot of candles.

B0rsuk, I believe diet plays an important part of this too. Eat lots of meat, drink lots of blood, drain lots of life.
