QFT...

I am playing a mage (basically Marion Zimmer Bradley's Blue Star Adept) destined to fight for LAW against CHAOS at the end of time....if he doesnt get killed first.

I have had this character for about 2 yrs.

In the 23+ yrs I have been in the campaign NO ONE has ever died of "old age".

Technically Unaging is covered in the Adept of the Blue Star package (along with Magery 1; Status/1; Rep+1; College of Mages membership and a few other things (Disad Enemy other Bluestars FREX).

Edit:
Oh yeah and IC he is about 28...in a world where people are active into their middle age (80-90) and are known to live to 120-140 or so.

I am stone certain that there is no cost being charged for the "advantage" Unaging.

If I were GM I would likely just mod it meself.

Good Luck.
