Enhance Lifespan by Shadowknight

This can be considered a lesser version of the Longevity minor power. It represent people in comics who clearly age but for some reason are very active beyond what biology should allow them to. they basically age 9 mts for every 12 mts. This is very similar to the Ancient Master who could be 90 but is as active and vital as someone over half is age. In game terms you receive +1 to P.E, + 1 P.B and +2 to save vs any temporal power or magic. There's many ways this feat can be accomplished it could be a Special Meditation taught by Monks from Tibet, Yoga, Chi Gung all 3 are said to slow down aging. It could be you translated an old Manuscript from India, a special Acupuncture ritual that you must undergo every 6 months, maybe a special potion you ingested or splash on you when you receive your powers. No matter how it happened you age slower than your compatriots. You also never suffer from dementia, arthritis, brittle bones, lost of vision or hearing, Outside of the last 10 yrs of your life you can remain an active crime fighter. The majority of people with this feat live to roughly 150 yrs old, to determine how long you'll live multiply your P.E number X 5. Old age doesn't start to kick in till you are over 90 yrs old, you start losing 3 points of SPD every 5 yrs beyond 90 or 10% of your SPD if you have some sort of Enhance SPD or Flight based power, you lose 1D4 points of PS & PP every 4 yrs beyond 90 and you start losing 1D6 Hit points every 6yrs beyond 90.
