[QUOTE="Ferrix, post: 1491492, member: 6115"] Yeah, it was a toss up between the two... thanks for the response Also, this is a bit off topic for what I had in mind for the changes to aging. This to me is about as silly as level-limits from second edition, sorry, I just don't see it. Particularly if both characters adventure just as much. You should also note that the half-elf has only a few years on a halfling, by your reasoning they should be part of the quick advance races. I'd see no reason to slow experience gain for long-lived races, just as I'd see no reason to speed up experience gain for short-lived races. If you ran a game like this, everyone would play humans or whatever the shortest lived race was because they'd advance at the swiftest rate. Talk about hurting choices. Just because you live a shorter time does not mean you learn more in that time than others do. If that proved true, people who knew they'd probably die by the time they are thirty would be vastly superior to those who on average live twice as long. [/QUOTE]
