→‎Creatures: added creature age duration table based on Theodis' forum post
=== Creatures ===
When it comes to the ages of [[creature]]s, the ages are: young, adolescent, mature, aged, old, and venerable. Creatures take several Wurm [[month]]s to reach the venerable stage. They will eventually die of old age, but most species have extremely long lifespans. One [[huge spider]] was observed alive after over six months of real time.
 
The following table shows a good estimate of each stage's duration, [http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/120560-length-of-time-for-each-horse-age/|based on some research and testing] for horses, but could well be applicable for all creature types.

Creature age affects its size and running speed, and older animals will have increased [[fighting]] capabilities. Aged animals have been reported to be the fastest around, especially aged huge spiders; anything younger or older will be slower than aged.
