question about shield dwarf life cycle to anyone that has races of faerun book. if you have a shield dwarf and you want him to be middle-aged, equivalent to human mid 30s...what would the correct dwarven age be? 65? 70? thanks in advance. dont look at me that way deathless, i have no idea what you're talking about. i'm not plotting anything, i swear *gets struck by lightning*

Hey I need a buddy who will drag Foinus out of Elfsong, when he pass out on the tavern floor !!
Anyways here is something...
"Dwarves are a long-lived race, though not so much as the Tel'Quessir, and reach physical maturity somewhat later than humans, traditionall considered adults once they reach age 50, and live far longer. Dwarves age much like humans but over a longer period of time, remaining vigorous well past 150 years. Most dwarves live to see their bicentennial and a few live to be over 400."

Well if 400 is like a walking corpse Dwarf then i would go for about 180-190 for a Dwarf just out of his prime.. Then theres how healthy a life he lived.. So he could look relatively young for up to 230-250 years before grey hairs and whatnot set in. Isnt Bruenor Battlehammer like 350 years old?
