Boots of Youth or any other item that stop aging is much easier to accomplish, and doesn't have those side-effects. But it is an interesting idea.

Is there any item other than the boots? Right now it seems that only blood nations can keep from losing their mages.

Elixir of Life, Fire/Nature item.

... and don't forget that one rank in nature magic add 25 years to the lifespan of a human mage (it will even remove the "old age icon" if the mage is now under the new limit, but of course it don't remove afflictions that he already have).

It doesn't? I thought it did. I'll have to test that.

EDIT: You're right. It doesn't. I wonder how I got that confused.

Lycantroph Amulet has a per turn chance of transforming your mage into a random monster. The monster is usally not troubled by Old Age. Note that the amulet is cursed and make the wearer "gone berserk".

The spell Transformation also seems to reset a units age.
