Half-Celestial lifespan?

[Shin Okada]

Celestials don't die by age. Aasimars do not live much longer than usual human. Then how long Half-Celestial Human (or other Half-Celestials) live?

Does any book mention about it?

Can't think of a relevant sourcebook at the moment, but I'd maybe go with around 100-200 years per age category, so they'd end up a little bit like classic nephilim, and the like, if not in many other ways.

Well, 100-200 per category past childhood, let me just add.

Or perhaps instead of mucking about with lifespan, you could simply rule they don't get negative aging mods- their half-celestial nature prevents them from aging normally. They may wrinkle, but they don't weaken...

Thanks. So it is basically undefined. I am wondering if Half-Celestial can be used as a NPC who is guarding certain place and thing for millennia.

Depends on what the other half is, i would say.

Ah! With an NPC it is easy to say, "that's the way it is!" You don't have to justify these things to the PCs unless they have some way of knowing the answer.

If they had some way to find out, I'd tell 'em that the NPC's great-great grandfather was a god and granted jr. immortality for a birthday present!
