I thought the lore stated that Khazard was born towards the end of the God Wars? So he'd be like 3,000... He sure doesn't act like it :P
personality-wise I'd put him at 12, maybe 13

that is what the rs wiki says, yes...before I read this, I just had in my mind a reality where palkeera became pregnant during the end of zaros' reign and into zamorak starting the god wars (which would actually mean her pregnancy lasted the entire time zamorak was murdering the demonworld which seems weird, but... maybe isnt that weird, considering...)

I reread her diary (everyone has to write a diary before dying, that's why they call them die-aries) and it doesnt imply anything of the sort... and they've also removed the mention of Azzanadra beating up a recently pregnant girl

edit: the only thing that does imply my reality is the 'za-' in 'He did it. Created life... Za-'. If the dad was zamorak, it wouldnt really be that amazing, girls get impregnated all the time, which implies that it was Za-ros who 'did it, created life' which would imply she'd have to have had the kid when Zaros was recently around, which would imply shortly after the second age

edit 2: change hilarious joke in third paragraph from 'that's why they call them die-aries' to 'how else would passing adventurers know how they died?' Carn

That reminds me, how old is Armadyl and when did Saradomin meet him? He stated in MPD that he saw Kethsi get destroyed, and he seems to know a decent bit about the Stone. Did he use it? He seems to hate the idea of using the stone more than the dragonkin do, so I'm going to guess no Carn

If I recall, he stated that he knew of the events that took place on Kethsi, not that he saw them take place. Saradomin and Armadyl probably met on Gielinor, as it seems unlikely Saradomin would go to Abbinah, encounter the Aviansie, and NOT try to force them into his regime. A

I honestly don't see any of the (living) Mahjarrat being much older than around ~10,000 years or so. Freneskae was a harsh place, and they were being killed off via rituals far more quickly there, although they did at least have reproduction to offset it a bit. At any rate, I don't really see the average lifespan of a Dream of Mah on Freneskae as being more than a few hundred years. All of the Mahjarrat we've encountered were probably born several generations after Mah created them.

Of the Mahjarrat still alive, I'd reckon Sliske, Wahisietel, Kharshai, Hazeel and Zamorak himself are probably the oldest. Or they act like oldest, at any rate.

Zemouregal, Akthanakos, and obviously Khazard are probably the youngest. Or maybe they're just the most childish. You never were our brightest star, Khazard. 'Vermin slaughtered like lambs'? What does that even mean?

I'm pretty sure Death was the first human (or living being?) to die on Gielinor, which is why Guthix tasked him with being the Reaper (Unless that lore bit was scrapped?). Which would make Death about what, 13,000 years old? A

How can Zarador live that long? He lived for 2000 years or so? It said that after the God war ended and the gods were deported by Guthix. Zarador went into hiding and waited for Bandos to return. I understand why General G lived for a long time because they got frozen by a unknown spell fpr 2000 years. Zarador did said he master the art of shaman and magic...maybe he cast a spell himself so he can't died of old age? Lol

Lol It IS theoretically possible that the Ourg race lives that long "naturally," (I say it like that because Bandos seems to have warped all the races in some way, so it may not have originally been natural to live that long) and Graardor's aging process has just been significantly slowed due to being in cryogenic stasis.
