    *HUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMMM*

    *Cue the choir of Monks*

    Anyway, just to throw it out there, I"m guessing Hyur's live as long as Humans do ~70-90 years. Miqo'te prolly live a similar lifespan. Elves always seem to be ALOT older than the Humans, Lalas live I'd guess 150-200 years (shorter if they become footballs), Roes, I have no idea.
    I always imagined Miqo'te were fairly short lived, around 40 to 50 years at most. Not a clue what a Roe's lifespan would be.

    Moose's previous post got me thinking though, what if we get Echos that showed us NPCs or even ourselves at a younger age? I've only ever seen Hyur children, so I supposed they'd have to work out what children of the other races look like, but could be interesting. It would be a perfect way to very subtly slip in the existence of a card game :P.

    Some of the kids that hang out in the Carpenter's Guild are Elezen. Damielliot (the Alchemist Guildmaster's son) is also an Elezen.

    Apart from the Elezen's lifespan being longer than everyone elses, we don't know much more. The Lalafellan example of how they've been running a bar for 80 years makes me think they might be in the second running though.

    Correct. Nicoliaux is the prominent example in Gridania.
