What are your experiences with characters aging during a campaign?
We just did a 5-year time skip in the game I play in. For the dwarves in the group, this meant very little. But for the 19-year old half-drow, five years came with a lot of change and maturity!
I always liked the idea of a campaign that skips a lot of time between adventures. It would be funny to play some like an aaracokra who reaches maturity at 3 and dies by 30. After a 10-year gap, the elf wizard comes back unchanged, but the aaracokra's player would be coming in as the child of their own character!
