does anyone know the lifespans of the races in tamriel

never found it on the wiki

Something + 100 for Altmer, see Phynaster.
Dunmer 120 if they're common, see interview with Alvur Relds.

For Mer age is more flexible when living a comfortable life or being proficient in magic, see Barenziah (500), Baladas (2000) or Fyr (4000).

For man, assume normal human lifespans.

thanks alot i got really confused after reading the biography of barenziah

?that makes no sense at all?

What doesn't?

Peasant elves = ~100
Rich elves = +500
Elvish wizards = +1000

Humans = normal real life human life span.

Orcs = 40 or 60, I forgot (see the 5 songs of Wulfhart)

Beast races = good question

Lifespawns? Ninja Monkey, obviously.

Oh, wait, lifespans... Heh...

my bad english isn't my main language

No problem. The Ninja Monkey comes from the Morrowind CS, where creature spawns are represented as Ninja Monkeys.

There have been several threads about this. I'll list a few, but you can use the forum search function (type in "lifespan") to find more.

thanks for the links

Another tidbit of info; people don't seem to age in the Shivering Isles, as Ciirta was alive before the last Greymarch. And I imagine that Sheogorath finds natural deaths far too boring for him.

If elves live longer, does this apply to interbred races like Bretons? They're also naturally proficient with magic.

Ciirta was also a witch very skilled in seeing the future. I'm certain she knew how to magically extend her life.

Bretons are philosophically more mannish than elvish and because of this and how the ES universe works, that tends to then reflect their lifespans. I'd imagine that on average Bretons would live 10-15 years longer than most other Human races with proper scaling for those rich enough to afford a comfortable life. Probably the roof of their age would be about 105 or so.

Interesting fact, although people in TES live for so long, they hardly ever remember the past exploits of amazing heroes such as the hero in arena, daggerfall and morrowind

So Altmer live for many years. How would a young Altmer of, say 20 years, differ to a human of 20 years? Would he/she be considered a child Altmer, or just treated like a young advlt, like human races?

good question, umm it would probably differ betweens the different clans and regions etc. probably just like a normal person of 20 years.

Not sure why a moderator hasn't closed this, seeing as there's been so many threads on it before (including one of my own.)
