Yeah the game has one screwed up way of aging. Its amazing how old you get but no one else ages.

It felt kinda silly with Theresa calling me "Little Brother" even though I'm 53 and she looks about 20

You can actually revert back to a younger age by donating to Skorm. Just sacrifice some people and you'll take some time off your age.

But I also found this:

"What I've heard is YES, you can die. But not of old age. You can live to be 1,000 years old if you so desired. You choose your hair (facial included) just how RPG said, as well as tattoes, clothing (down to your socks, and these can be mismatched if you want), and jewelry. I'm making that last bit up, sort of, but if you look in recent pics, guys are wearing fanged necklaces, rings on both hands, etc."

He's all lies, ou can't die, if you run out of HP and Ressurection Phials the game will restart from last saving point, thus no death. You can only go to 65, not 1000. You can't choose your hair, you go to the barber and get a hair cut. Tattoos, yes. Clothing, yes, no socks though, only Helmet/Body/Leggings/Boots/Gloves. No Jewelry, and those shots are pre-release.

He is such a bad liar.

I don't think he did it on purpose, and besides, none of that makes all that much of a difference. Big point is that you can indeed become younger. Just sacrifice someone to Skorm. End of story.

I'm trying to end the game at age 30 or so, so that my character still has black hair. This unfortunately has a pretty negative consequence, I will have to severely limit magic/strength/skill progression, particularly magic. I will be relying mostly on Master Elixers, I know where to get infinite of both kinds. Has anyone else tried to do this? If so how did it work out?

Well, I just beat the game at age 38 with fully black hair, and since I threw the Sword of Aeons into the pit, my hair is blonde. So now I have a fully dark character and a fully light one, and the games saved on different slots. One game saved before beating the game protecting against any mishaps. Fortune has smiled upon my character. He is kinda scrawny, though.
