Every time you use your experience to improve a feat by one, you age one year, with a max of 65 years old.

65 is the oldest you get but you can get some youth back by sacrificing people in the Chapel (-10) or by donating in the Temple (-5)

It's pretty much random how much life you get back from the churches... both have a maximum of 10 years. I'm not sure you age 1 year per feat, though. Physical attributes seemed to age me less than some of the magic ones, I'm sure.

One thing which I would like to point out is that 65 is only the maximum age reachable without any 'divine intervention' so to speak. My character, by non-conventional means, has reached the age of 72.

Another thing which you guys failed to mention (I geuss because none of you practice magic heavily) is that every time you level up magical skill (you know, the one that affects your mana total), your character's age increases by up to five years.

I use all the magic spells quite often and heavily and the farthest age I've reached is 65, I'm 53 now as I have donated a lot of golds to the Templo and sacrificed a few ppl.

Alien, when you said "by non-conventional means" what's that supposed to mean??

I have also just boosted my mana and health bars to the max and that didn't make me any older, my hair is actually a bit darker than when i hit 65, kinda brownish.

Also I have got all the experience points maxed out... including the ones where you gotta be evil... all you gotta do is get evil for a bit and they'll just open up for you to buy... I have 5hundredK+ general and strength experience points which I'm never gonna get to use and I'm maxedddddddddd :( ( LOL

Another way to avoid looking all rigged is by sticking to the same tattoos for as long as possible... I was always changing them and that's when my body got all full of those age lines - yuck - so I decided I was only going to stay with a set and since I did it they have gained their color back and all!!

And why do you want to scare the undead?? just kill those fools LMAO :)

Oh yeah and I got my experience points to 999,999 and it didn't go any higher so I thought it was just a waste of time go higher :D

Your age will increase depending on how much experiance is USED to improve stats, the age limit is 65, any experiance gained but not used will have no effect on age. Using magic doesn't affect the age either, but because Magic requires the most experiance that why you age more when you try max out Magic.

My character looks in his 60's so if I pass the age limit do I just die and the game ends I am scared to level up exprience anymore considered I have 100,000 EXPto add to any exprience I like

The limit is 65 no matter what, you don't die in Fable of old age.
