In the bunch of NPCs I'm designing is a Half-Elf....somewhere down the line, Jaheira asks him if he's ever considered becoming a Harper, and is mildly surprised to find out that he already was one.

Ugh, I must slap myself for not studying. ::hauls out huge tome on the FR:: Let's see... The Time of Troubles started in 1358 DR... So the game would take place about 1380 DR... The Tethrian Civil War was LONG, but started... 1347 DR.. ::bows:: I was ignorant. Half-elves typically live two or three centuries. Let's say that Jahiera was taken in by druids about age five.. ........ ........ That would make Jahiera about... thirty. No, there's no way she's thirty. But numbers don't lie. Maybe the people who wrote for the game didn't do their research either. ::shrugs::
