Kinda varies from edition to edition.
In the Realms in 2E, Elves were effectively immortal, as far as lifespan goes.
On average though most Half-Elves in many settings, not just D&D tend to live about 300 or so years. |

The old 2E Complete Book of Elves may have a differnt lifespan of a half-elf...
And I remember some net book..."The Complete Book of Half-Elves" that split half-elves lifespans up by their elven parents...
and FYI I requested months ago on the Paizo's site for an article in Dragon magizine for a template of "half-dwarf/elf/halfling/gnome/etc." (like they have done for the half-troll and half-ogre") so you could make "dwelves" and "elflings"  |

I had forgotten about that, its been to long since I read them; time to dig in the bookshelves.
And on the same note the dwelves hairy appearance will of course be the same to every one, no matter what their feelings for the dwelf is. |

Dwarves Deep mentions half dwarves on page 6; common earlier in some areas, but not any more. Except for some exterior differences these can be counted as dwarves. I guess the Dwelf would look something like a couple of the older elves in Elfquest. |

A Dwelf? Scererar pictures a pointy eared, bushy bearded, spell slinging, axe welding, nature loving, rock climbing, sort of dude 
I liked the 2E chart for determining age and life spans |

Drannor Whitethistle was an elf -- Cormanthyr.
Labrad, the product of Drannor Whitethistle (an elf) and Konora Onyxhelm (a dwarf), was a dwelf.

Wasn't Myth Drannor named after a half-elf half-dwarf? |

Well I can give you some credit for being persistance.
Half elf default appears to infer human elf parents. Age is in the SRD.
I half elf and half drawf might exist, but I do not recall any at this time.
Logic does not apply to the game.

Half-elf/Human lifespan: 128-185 years
Now first, if you want to add a Half-elf/dwarf you will have to ask DM. Now lifespan..
Half-human Elf: +55 years on human, -222 years on elf.
Human: 72-90 (Average:79 years)
Dwarves:252-450 (Average:349 years)
Elf:354-750 (Average:548 years)
Just a few numbers. |
