Re: Age and adverse effects on attributes and skills
remember it varies on race. After all, dragons get Stronger with age rather than weaker

Those entries only address old age.
What about young characters?

For young humans I use the entries for the Chaos Wizard in Rise of Magic, since it covers all ages up to adulthood.

If you mean "children" chars. The BTS1 book has stats for human children & teens.
If you mean 18-25 young, *gets out the clue bat* look at the attribute stats you rolled.
You might also look in the Systems Failure book for child/tweeny/teen char stats.
The word 'young's meaning is very subjective to the reader's own age. Sort of like the word 'soon'.
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.

When mentioning anything in a Rifter it is polite to mention Which One.
