FWIW, in my campaign I've made Youth potions unavailable & mythical just to 
avoid the Eternal Ruler headaches. OTOH, while I haven't put it in writing, I 
am planning to allow a spell, with IQ somewhere in the 20s, that will allow the 
caster (only) to keep from aging. (And not castable from scrolls or any other 
item.) 

I've also cut down the save on Word of Command from 5 dice to 3, and I'm very 
relucatant to allow any sort of control spell with a save of more than 3 or 4 
dice.
