Eh - I've read on the forums that the Allfather _can_ be healed of his one-eyed status, because it shows up as a wound. Presumably the same is true of Anwyn the blind (heroine of Man). For the Allfather, I suspect that Vanheim doesn't get GoH or the Chalice as readily as other nations, so it doesn't happen often, but with Man...

Never played the Allfather, but Brangwen gets better with a Gift of Health - I've done that often enough to be sure of it...
