Short Lifespan

10 points/level

Your lifespan is much shorter than the human norm. Each level of this disadvantage halves your lifespan (round down). This affects the age at which you reach maturity, the ages at which aging rolls begin and increase in frequency, and the interval between aging rolls; see the table. No more than four levels are possible. Short Lifespan is often found in conjunction with Self-Destruct.
