level drain!!

[Oryon]

Can somebody help me figure out how to rid my PC from his case of "Level Drain"? He's stuck on level 2 with 16 HP while the others are at level 10. I can't do anything with him.

Oh, so u are stuck on level 2 eh? The only way out of the situation is to go to a temple and buy a Greater Restoration spell, or buy a scroll of Restoration and use it, or just use ur Cleric/Druid and cast the Lesser/Greater Restoration spell when it's available.

A druid cannot cast Lesser Restoration. You will need a priest. If your protagonist isn't a priest or if you haven't a custom party with a priest then think of Viconia. She is the only predefined priest NPC in the game. Lesser Restoration is a level 4 priest spell.
Otherwise, you will spend all your money in temples for healing level drains. Not speaking about vampires in dungeons on your way. There are no temples in dungeons.

Hmm... a druid can't cast Restoration? Oh yeah that's right, Jaheria can't cast Restoration, that explains... Hey, what's the difference between a Lesser Restoration and a Greater Restoration?

Actually, there are 3 NPC priests in the game: Viconia, (Sir-)Anomen, and Aerie. They all get lesser restoration fairly quickly, if they don`t have it as soon as you get them.

Lesser restoration only cures the level drains. The greater restoration cures all things like poison and diseases, cures level drain and heals the character (or whole party in a temple). However, casting greater restoration is very tiring and the caster must rest
(immediately?) after casting it. The manual says that the caster remains tired a couple of days despite of resting (I don't know sure how long or if it's really used in the game cause I only use lesser restoration).

You get all levels of one character back with lesser restoration.

MY party is my thief drow elf, Aerie, Viconia, Minsc, Jaheira, and Nalia.

I WOULD have Yoshimo instead of Nalia but he was killed inside Nalia's quest
