Rhyme and Punishment Forums

Can someone who knows please advise me on the life expectancy of the various player character races and maybe the active 'adventuring' range band of adulthood? Thank you in advance.

I think there was a forum post asking about the age range of our characters, I couldn't answer for Vikkae, I just think of her as a young adult gnome.

Taken from the WoW RPG corebook here are the ages for Gnomes, Dwarfs and Night Elves. and I'll provide the human ones so you have an idea how the translate across. As far as I'm aware there's no real figures for Draenei.

Gnome: Adulthood: 40, Middle Age: 100, Old: 150, Venerable: 200, Maximum age: 200-500

Human (for comparison): Adulthood:15, Middle age:35, Old:53, Venerable: 70, Maximum age: 70-90

Dwarf: Adulthood: 40, Middle Age: 125, Old: 188, Venerable: 250, Maximum age: 250-450

Night Elf: Adulthood: 60, Middle Age:500, Old: 650, Venerable:700, Maximum age: 700-1200 (They can of course be much older than this as they were all immortal until a few years ago.)

Thank you. That has answered my question perfectly.

I gotta get me that book :S where did you get it?

Nothing like WoWwiki - http://www.wowwiki.com/Lifespan

Quilboar never reach maximum age, they commit ritual suicide once they become, weak, elderly, crippled, or past child-bearing age.

Haha didn't notice that.

Lovely! I know a few people who think like that...

I'd put Draenai as the average of humans and orcs, personally.

Quite a few of the Draenei are atleast 25,000 years old as they comment on the escape from Argus. Not to mention Velen who was not only on Argus but one of the three leaders (for better word) of the Draenei people (other two being Archmonde and Kil'jaeden) so he probably had a fair wack of years behind him already.

With the intervention of the Naaru, it's believed in quite a few places that Draenei are immortal, just like the Night Elves used to be.
