In my data, some bonuses got after putting the Tear of Bhaal on the "eye", like constitution bonus, become red numbers, instead of white numbers in my character record. Even worse, the numbers showed in ShadowKeeper are the old numbers (numbers before bonuses). Does it mean the bonuses got in the hell are temporary? If not, how to solve it?

They are permanent. It just makes them red for some reason unknown to me.

Shadow keeper won't see it, but they are indeed permanent.

The bonuses you receive in Hell are affects applied to your character, which you can see with Shadowkeeper. The base stats remain unchanged. A stat like WIS, for example, will turn red if it's higher/lower than its base stat. This happens with Anomen when he receives his knighthood.

It happens when you wield that crossbow that lowers str as well

It's worth pointing out, as an aside, that if you take Anoment into the party and hack his WIS stat with Shadowkeeper, whis WIS will still be shifted to 16 when his quest completes. Even if you;ve got it set in SK at 25.

That's how I learned that his wisdom boost was an applied affect.

The benefit to these being effects not base stat bonuses are that they are added to any additional bonuses. For example if your base STR was 12 and you wear Gaunt. of Ogre Power your STR is still only 18/00. However if your base is 10 with applied effect of +2 STR wearing the Gaunt. you have 20 STR.
