I'm not entirely sure that this is the correct forum for this but I am new to the game and there didn't seem to be anywhere else that was more appropriate. In any event, I've been working on a character background before actually doing much in-game and was about to give specific ages for some of the events. At around this time, the question occured to me of what the rate of aging and average life expectency for the different races is intended to be. Well, I looked about and wasn't able to find it so I'm wondering if we're supposed to assume that it's simply the same for all of the races and roughly equivelent to humans in our reality? or is this information in fact somewhere on the site and I've simply missed it? If the later is the case, could someone point me to where I might find it?

In the same vein, during the character creation process, the year of the character's birth is automatically set to...I think it's the 750. This kind of leaves me wondering what year the "now" of the game world is intended to be, if it has even been set at this point in development.

Yes, I'm a bit detail-obsessed but answers to either of these questions would be appreciated  .
