Accelerate Lifeline (Wizard Spell)

This spell speeds the aging process of any creature of Intelligence 2 or greater. The creature ages up to one year per level of the chrono­mancer. The exact amount must be set to the nearest month before the spell is cast. Aging occurs at a rate of one year per turn and a system shock roll to avoid death is required. While undergoing the change, any action attempted is performed at one-half normal ability.
The material component is a small piece of polished amber and an ounce of ichor from a tether beast. The affected creature must be touched, and it receives a saving throw vs. death magic if unwilling.
The reverse of this spell, reverse lifeline, can­not bring back the dead, but it can reduce the age of the recipient by up to one year per level of the caster. Age reduction occurs at a rate of one year per turn, and a system shock roll to avoid death is required. The creature must still be touched, and it receives a save if unwilling. The material com­ponents are the same as above, plus a cup of pure spring water subjected to the Demiplane of Time for one subjective day.
Notes: Restricted to chronomancers; common.
