Time tree and ageless pawns
So I have an ageless pawn that is also a psycaster. The ageless trait is supposed to stop them from going over 18, but the time tree abilities that add age to a pawn still work on them. Does this actually do anything? Just want to be careful that my ageless pawn doesn't get alzheimers and die.

I figure I will just use character editor when it gets silly and change the age back

Well, ageless just prevents age from increasing. If a 1,000 year old was given it, they would remain 1,000. Just not go up.

Non-Senesant prevents illnesses and such from old age, theoretically letting them live forever (or until other injuries occur)

So, so long as you have both, you don’t have to worry about it!

And, if you think about it, as the aging is psychically induced, it makes sense that they age. After all, this prevents cells from naturally ageing!

Then again, it is just accelerated time… maybe the field overloads the nanites? But both the Nanites and the Psycasts are archotech-based…

Ah well, who knows!

You know I never actually thought of this before, but yeah a sanguophage and a chronopath would have a very good synergy, on account of the whole immortality and eternal youth thing.

one thing to note, rimworld will do some math that uses the age for 1) fertility, and 2) if pawns will have a good "compatibility" which affects which pawns will accept or propose relationships, so your billion year old caster will be fine *mostly* but probably cant have kids and most of your pawns will not want to get together with them

guys you can just go halfway up the other path and use the "age" psycast on raiders, prisoners, visitors, paralytics, and/or slaves. requires more meditation but less cheesy immortality genes.
