More avatars!!! Lets have that cartoonish guy draw sum more stuff I like it!! Like the Races in 317 Xenophillia..


Hey guys and gals gotta question... recently I'm running an epic level game and thus my players have "interesting" races. Unfortunately the game involves aging the characters into the hundreds of years and was wondering if anyone has an opionion on the lifespan of a houd archon... I currently have agreed to 500 years, but the player was a little disturbed by it and I offered to check it out online so, If anyone has any ideas or can suggest a book in which to look I know we'd be greatful!!

A hound Archon is a kind of Angel. I'd assume they where like demons and devils. In this regards there are lots of references to things like keeping devils on guard for centuries. I've never heard of any kind of a reference to a Demon or Devil dying of old age. I think your Hound Archon is ageless. I'd say aging is for mortals, one of their defining features. The God's and their servants don't age. I've never seen a refference to an angel getting old and arthritic - its contrary to their innate nature - they are forever young.


Well spoke Mr. Donald I suppose he'll be thrilled to hear it... either way I'll just force him back into Celestia then and that'll be that... Well thanx again for responding I was unsure of which messageboard to put this on for someone to respond...


Archons are more like protecters in a sense and less like angels. I think of them more as emissaries of the light and defenders of all that is good and blah, blah, blah...

well, by the way see reference to them on Order of the Stick online comic #194 at www.giantitp.com

I was using angel as a kind of general D&D catagorization meaning pretty much all good aligned outsiders from the upper planes. Pretty much a shorthand in the same way as Demon and Devil is often used. They are all pretty much just different aspects of the same kind of creature. Hence my argument that if Demons and Devils don't age then it stands to reason that neither do Angels (and by extension Archons).
