I find it a bit odd that the rules around ability drain has not been revisited and it's still permanent in spite of the changes to energy drain/negative levels.
With negative levels, you can regain them with a successful Fort save, and permanent ones (like from being brought back from the dead) can be fixed with Restoration. Ability drain still can only be fixed with Restoration, period. This feels like these two drains have been treated unevenly.
I suggest that Abilty Drain be recoverable with a Fort save to recover 1/day. That way it recovers at a rate similar to Ability Damage, but still reflects the severity of the condition.

Galnörag agrees so whole strongly that he responds in the third person. His treacherous mageling is weak and succumbs quickly to undead ability drain denying Galnörag the tomb raiding he so richly desires.
