Default Crystal Heart

Ok, heres the prob. My prophet is diseased. I don't want to lose him. I'm wondering if I can give him a crystal heart and have it heal him upon death.

But aside of that, what other options are there for curing disease or curses ?

Curse: none

Disease: can be healed like any other affliction. I'm even not sure it's auto-healed upon death. And a Crystal Heart works only in combat o.c., doesn't it?

Twiceborn will rebirth your guy as a wight mage if he dies of disease.

Gift of health I could have tried (hes dead), Im mictlan so no priestess and no chalice within a 7 turn possibility.

Twiceborn has to be cast by the mage in question if I recall ? so that would be a no no as hes a fire mage.

A Ring of Regeneration would have restored his hps in battle. So docked in Air Shield, wielding a good shield, with armor for protection, etc., and just scripted to wait, he would have regained hps.

On the other hand, he would have gotten many afflictions. I think someone once had a Diseased Mictlan Priest get an Infernal Contract early in the game, and had to keep him alive. He was posted into the "most battle afflictions" thread...

What about the Ritual of Rebirth? As a prophet, he could well be inside the Hall of Fame, no?

Ring of regeneration would have kept him alive on the overland map.

Ring of regen ? Alive on overland map ?

Hows that work.....I presumed it was only a combat effect. Again I assume he would have been hit by afflictions....but.....
