In light of all of that, I don't think I need to explain to you why I won't be offering my blood to you or anyone else. Even if I wanted to, I don't think it would be a good idea.
[ his blood is special given who his father is and for all he knows that would transfer and we probably do not need suped up vamps? ]
But I imagine you probably have a list of volunteers already.
If you start to climb the Tower but give up midway, you can live to 500 years old or so. And if you become an actual regular and don't use your wish on immortality, one thousand years old isn't unheard of.
Of course this assumes you don't get killed in combat, which is pretty common.
Depends on a lotta factors. If the human's playin' nice with the vampires in the region an' they don't piss 'em off, then I think the oldest live to be around... seventy? Maybe? I've never met an older human, so I can't say for sure. Most of 'em die younger, either 'cause the vampires ain't careful with 'em, or 'cause they're tryin' to rebel against the vampires.

I'll research it and get back to you. [ ...it's going to bug the hell out of him otherwise and it's extremely weird to think about. because yeah, people die early in the tower all the time but that's because it's a kill or be killed world, not because of old age or disease. ]

I sure do. It's kinda crazy how many people volunteered? So yeah, I'll be just fine. Thanks for lettin' me know, though.

There's more kindhearted people here than I'm used to dealing with. We have our share of them in the Tower, but they're stuck in the Outer Tower.

[Well. They didn't last very long.]
The Outer Tower?

So how old do people get if they do leave?

You said human lifespans are much shorter. How short is that?
