The Ubbergeek said:Personaly, on that account, I 'shadowruned' a bit and cut the lifespan of the longer-living races... One milenium for an elf, nah...
Personally, I always thought anything less than 1000 years for an elf was too short.
An truly interesting idea (IMHO) for elves would be to make them actually be immortal, but only able to remember the last 20 years or so of their life. It would explain why every elf isn't epic-level (because they are constantly forgetting their old skills and identities). Something in me likes the idea of elves as immortal adolescents, aware that they are going to live forever, but never becoming any wiser for it.
