What’s your headcanon age difference between Voryn and his oldest siblings? In human years, not elf years.

i thinkkkkkkk in human years they're pretty close together. i hc that TES elves age quickly at the same rate as humans until theyre like. 20-25-ish and after that they slow WAY the fuck down with physical aging. but they aren't considered a full legal 'adult' until around 70-100 years old (depending on culture) and a proper adult around the age of 200. most elves also live to be around 600-800 years old without magical intervention or like, murder. so.

so in terms of human ages they'd be considered around the same age. in order for them to have the same gap of maturity as humans morvani (voryn's mom) would have had to have them all within like. 10-12 years or something crazy like that. and 8 kids in 10 years is CRAZY. already most elves thought morvani was weird having kids so quickly after the other but she had a lotta husbands and wanted to get a good, proper heir so she would have a kid, raise them, see their temperament and strengths, weigh her options, and then typically had another kid when they were physically around 15.

gilvoth (oldest) was a young adult (around 110 or so) around the time morvani decided voryn (youngest) would be her heir

another fun fact is because of the weird hc aging voryn and nerevar have known each other like. forever. they met around age 10-12 i usually hc it which for elves is YOUNG. young-young. to elves a 10 year old is just an overgrown infant that can talk. for elves nerevar and voryn have been friends since diapers. for most ppl its bizarre they've been friends this long. what do you mean you both met at age 10???? you're both like 300 now. what the fuck. do you even remember meeting.
