I've read varying accounts, though they seem to point to an average life expectancy of about years averaged all together that is from different sources. Taking that into account, an Eldar is probably considered an "adult" at around I'd guess. I tend to agree that a Dark Eldar's life would be shorter. Primarily because they are such a violent, indulgent race.
I would also wager a guess that the Eldar lifespan has shorten since the times before the fall shortening up to the fall as they became more and more indulgent , due to increased accidents that come with space travel, more warp beings out to get them, more warlike, etc, ad nauseum.
Farseers seem to be near immortal, and usualy tire of the physical plane and seek solice in the dome of the crystal seers. Eldrad being someone who had for a long time refused to go this way, thus he has a much longer life span. As for our Dark Kin. I doubt this extends to all dark eldar, lowly warriors wouldn't be able to expect such a thing from their cruel masters.
Farseer Mu'Soto of the Yirr'sul Craftworld. IWA Newbie Posts: Old fluff suggested an average lifespan of years, with Farseers being a special case - Eldrad Ulthran was an old respected Seer at the time of the Heresy which places him at least 10, years old, other fluff says he was around before the Fall which could extend back further than the existance of human civilization [modern fluff seems to indicate it happened at the same time as the Heresy, but there are a lot of logical inconsistancies if it happened any later than the year 20,, and prior to that it could be any time], even with an age of at Least 11, years with a far more likely age of at least 21, years he did not die of old age as we well know.
Still most cant redally call upon the powers of the Warp to rejuvinate their body so live considerably less long, with as the average. As for when you're considered an adult, I really dont recall any fluff either way on that subject, and given modern Eldar Society the qualifier is probably only "when you're old enough to choose a path" which could possibly be quite young; far younger than I'm in this mood, because of scorn, I'm in a mood for total war.
To the darkened skies once more, and ever onward. Draza Ancient Senior Member Posts: I generally believe that Eldar are based on Elves hence the pointy ears. Under that assumption, Eldar do not die of old age. They must die some other way eg fall off a cliff or get shot. Ps- Where can i get all this info on Absuel Vect. The codex can jack on him, how did we get all this knowledge that he has been around since the fall.
This would mean: -Eldrad is around 3,, Eldar years old 15,, Terran years. This would fit in pretty well with the High Elf lifespans. Farseers and Phoenix Lords alone would make it to Ancient. Ancient: Eldar years. Some Farseers Eldrad would be relatively mobile. Others Kariadryl would be barely able to walk, and would require frequent naps. Phoenix Lords would be more spry then ever.

Quote from: Draza on January 25, , AM. When Slaanesh was created during the fall the Eye of terror was created as a result all the warp storms that were surrounding terra were blown away. Ummm, no. In fact, NO. The warp storms that cut Terra off from humanity dissipated over a ong period and are still dissipating, hence the gradual nature of the great crusade. Such originality! Plus, "tidal currents within the infinity circuit"? It's a network of psychically resonant materials, not an ocean.
It doesn't have a tide. Last edited by Lord-Caerolion; at Because you are wrong. Because someone out there is , in fact, that stupid, unreasonable, lacking in common sense, etc.
I assure you. Re: How do Eldar measure time At least mon'keigh actually had a point and some sarcasm. Using dharknys is utterly pointless. That's like totally in eldar man! See all the totally eldar words. An Ork wouldn't call night time Dakkanez They get away with Mon'keigh because I pretend it's said Moan-kai or Moan-keeg and part of me hopes it is supposed to be.

He was also the victim of the Ritual of Cleaving which removes parts of the brain that removed all psychic ability including an Eldar's innate ones that allow for control of things through psychic triggers.
This punishment was after he tried to dominate the Farseer council through manipulation. Unknown whether this number is fixed. They are Arthathain maybe Dire Avenger? An Eldar battleship was under construction, confirming that Craftworld Eldar do have battleships though no BFG rules exist for Craftworld battleships.
The temple in the dome of the shrine appears to be a tower-like structure contrasted with the ziggurat of the Scorpions Farseer runes: Many runes with different benefits or uses to refine and narrow down visions of the future. Experienced farseers are said to be able to use dozens simultaneously. Many of these runes are taken from Eldar mythology. However some seem to be newer and devised by Eldar of the Craftworlds. Example of this is the Sign of Daitha. First devised on Iyanden by Nemreinthera then spread to other Craftworlds.
Eldar economy: There are stalls and a marketplace. Earrings are acquired from one stall but there is no payment at least no physical transfer of anything , just telling the vendor that one is taking them. Exodites: Flying dragon knights pteranodons? The World Spirits of an Exodite world is barred against entry by the psychic mind of the Craftworlder character. It is noted that it appears empty and barren in comparison to the throng of the Craftworld's Infinity Circuits Black Library: The white seers.
The equivalent of the men in black clean up crew. Apparently Harlequins are not the only guardians of the Black Library implying the white seers are too. An Alaitoc Farseer described Harlequins as too "capricious" to be entrusted as the sole guardians and that sounder minds would study the artifacts. However it also notes that Vaul eventually broke free from his chains Imperium: Confirmation that Imperial void shields are a form of warp technology, transferring energy into the warp.
It is a very large scale attack as hundreds of thousands of IG troops are mentioned as marching. Sons of Orar SM chapter also participating. Welcome to my world, Ciaphas.
One to one? In close combat? Perhaps three Primarchs fighting together Appears to be focused on introspective meditation and self reflection. A skill of this path seems to be the ability to "switch off" senses, leaving the mind to reflect without distraction. Path of Awakening. A complementary opposite to the Path of Dreaming, where conscious self reflective thought is suppressed in favor of direct experience and response.
Path of the Poet. As the title suggests. Path of the Artist. It seems to be more about actual physical art such as sculpture. Its purpose is not just creation of art but on absorbing stimuli, filtering, and expressing it. Path of Service: Might as well be called Path of the Waiter. Purpose seems to be developing humility and sense of duty. It stands in stark opposition and contrast with the Path of the Warrior.
Hope is an eternal spring from which I drink, and it tastes sweet forever. Path of Grief: Mourners that pour out grief so that others may mourn with calm regret and not be overwhelmed by guilt. Eldar in general: Seem capable of eidetic memory and reliving their memories in detail as if in a dissociative fugue.
These memories are called memedreams. Seem to have quite prodigious memories and are capable of filing away a lot of information, tagging it, or manipulating it much as one might do with an address book. Favor long hair. Aradryan's hair is described as being cut barbarically short, almost to the scalp. Korlandril when very young played with a dough like animadoll that would move in response to his infant thoughts. Thirianna becomes a Farseer, also in a very short time paralleling Korlandril's rapid change to an Exarch.
A cycle is a day. A pass is a year. The Eldar civilian life appears to be endless dilettante and artistic activities. It would have been nice to portray some of the more economic aspects of Craftworld life, such as food production or manufacturing with the Bonesingers. The Eldar war mask is what in real life psychiatric terms would be called a dissociative state.
The Eldar not in the war mask does not recall the acts of violence committed while in it. The masterpiece work of art that Korlandril creates as Artist is significant to him as an Exarch only for the cover it yields. This statue goes on to inspire another Eldar child to become a great sculptor in the future, but this legacy no longer matters to Korlandril. Vampires are shown dropping sonic charges. This may be a throwback to their original Epic conception, rather than FW 's versions which are more dropship and Titan hunter gunship.
Eldar language: There is such a thing as the past-sarcastic form and past-dead form of "friend". Doesn't it defeat the purpose of sarcasm though if it is "tagged"? To take a starwalk is a euphemism, at least on Alaitoc, for taking one's own life.
Bechareth, Spirit on the Wind, is a euphemism for Eldar that die without their waystones and lost to Slaanesh. It is also the name of a character in the novel who turns out to be a former Dark Eldar Incubus, now pursuing the Path of the Warrior as a Striking Scorpion Eldar Myth: Kurnous and Lileath were lovers.
Khaine was jealous and desired Lileath but could not win her because he was too crude and direct and his poems were inevitably about conquest and mastery and possession. Told by Asuryan that he cannot have Lileath unless she consents, Khaine flings her into a rift he carves out of the void with his sword, under the logic that if he can't have her, no one will.
After a thousand days, Kurnous rescues her and brings her and her light back to the universe. Khaine broke a tip off his fingers and it became a scorpion that stung Ulthanash, in order to sow conflict between him and Eldanesh. Ulthanash survived the deadly poison and realized he was not dependent on Eldanash any longer and so founded the House of Ulthanash.
Mithrainn is the name of the weak link in the chain that bound Vaul to his anvil. The gods gave gifts to the Eldar race. Asuryan gave Wisdom. Isha Love. Vaul Artifice. Lileath Joy. Kurnous Desire. Morai-heg Foresight. Khaine Anger. During the War in Heaven, Asuryan eventually fearing Khaine's wrath would destroy the gods as well as Eldar, consents to aid Isha in return for a lock of her hair, which Asuryan binds into Eldanesh's hair so that he and his descendants can be healed by Isha's love.
