An amulet of perpetual youth was an amulet that prevented the wearer from aging.[1][2]
Description[]
The amulet had a faint blue glow, which grew dimmer as the amulet itself aged.[1][2]
Powers[]
While worn, the amulet of perpetual youth protected the wearer from aging, both magical and natural. In effect, the amulet aged in place of the wearer, its glow fading until it went out completely, its magic spent, after which the wearer resumed aging normally. Any given amulet of perpetual youth could last for, and absorb, five years to three decades' worth of aging.[1][2]
Notable Examples[]
The Archmage of Menzoberranzan was granted a unique brooch of perpetual youth. While it only halved the wearer's natural and magical aging, it lasted as long as they held office.[3]
Notable Owners[]
- Gromph Baenre, Archmage of Menzoberranzan, possessor of the brooch of perpetual youth in the 14th century DR.[3][4]
- Noora bint Amon of Zakhara[5]
- Yaphyll, the Zulkir of Divination.[6][7]
