I'm building an abomination psychic in pathfinder, and it occurs to me that psychics have no answer to wizard discoveries or anything like that.
I know about the Mantle of Immortality, which only provides benefits while worn. If he takes it off for any reason, or it's forcibly removed, he'll rapidly age. Given his race, I'm not actually sure he lives as long as humans do.
Cyclic reincarnation would require him to die in the first place, which kinda defeats the purpose, and relies on an external person to reincarnate him.
It would not be in character for him to seek to become a lich (even if he is possibly slightly evil- he's chaotic neutral with leanings towards evil).
Vampirism is completely off the table, since he wouldn't even be himself if he became a vampire.
I also looked into Formless Adept- it doesn't actually look like it'd work.
EDIT: I looked into the description of Astral Projection, and the only thing that he'd need to worry about is his silver cord.
Would creating a timeless demiplane and astral projecting work?
Mainly, I'm looking for such options because I don't actually know how long this character would live. I don't know if his race lives as long as humans. Would really suck if he died of old age in the middle of a campaign.
