The lifespans of the various races in Black Rose varies from the default.
All of the “mannish” races (Human, Elf, Dwarf, Triton) are long lived. The average life expectancy is between 40 and 60 years but longer
Estimate: Add a characters modifiers for the stats for the two saves granted by their class to their Constitution then multiply by 5. If a character is multi classed they may chose the two saves from any class they have but must use both of the saves for that class. For example: Bub the Barbarian has a 15 Constitution and a 16 Strength. His life expectancy is 100 years (15+2+3)*5.
All of the “Lesser” races (Halflings and Gnomes) have a lifespan more like our own.
Estimate: Add the highest modifier for the stats for the saves granted by their class (or classes) to their Constitution then multiply by 4. For example: Billy the Bard has a 12 Constitution, a 14 Dexterity and a 16 Charisma. His life expectancy is 60 years (12+3)*4.
Greenskins and Beastfolk are short lived.
Estimate: Multiply the characters Constitution by 3.
Those with immortal or draconic blood (aasimar, teifling, dragonborn, kobold) can expect the longest lifespan of any race.
Estimate: Multiply the total of the character’s Constitution and the highest stat listed for the saves granted by their class (or classes) by 8. For example: Beizel the Monk has a Constitution of 14, a Dexterity if 16 and a Strength of 15. His life expectancy is 240 (14+16)*8.
These are only estimates. Other factors such as the characters class and level come into play as does the effect of serious injures.
As a thumbnail use these modifiers. When more than one modifier is listed they are for Tier 1, Tier 2 or Tier 3 characters.
Barbarian, Fighter - 90/80/70%
Bard, Ranger, Rogue - No modifier
Monk, Paladin, Sorcerer, Warlock - 110/130/160%
Cleric, Druid, Wizard - 120/160/220%
For example: If Beizel the Monk is a Tier 2 Tiefling his lifespan is 312 years.
