Default Re: [DF] How long do the different races live?

It's worth remembering that Dungeon Fantasy isn't like early editions of D&D where magically curing disease requires a 5th level cleric, who will initially only be able to cast the spell once or twice a day. In DF, Cure Disease only costs 4 FP and can be cast by a henchmen-level caster (any druidic Initiate can learn it, as can an Initiate cleric who spends optional advantage points on another level of Power Investiture). Because of that and similar considerations, I tend to assume humans in Dungeon Fantasy have close to TL8 life expectancy, and races with Unaging can easily live a few centuries before accident or violence claims them. Of course frequent monster attacks can lead to a different model of DF life expectancy.
