Line 393:
** How long was Xykon at Dorukan's gate again? Dorukan lived till then, and as for Soon, maybe he was just older than the other humans in the Order.
** Just checked again, and Shojo says it was 66 years previous that the Order of the Scribble began their journey. I'm aware that they certainly ''could'' be alive, I'm just wondering why the Order of the Stick takes it as such a certainty. You figure any of the Scribblers have to be in their 80s if not 90s by now. Durukan at least was a wizard, so living a long time is pretty much a given for them.
*** You don't have to be a wizard to take [https://web.archive.org/web/20131202084044/http://www.systemreferencedocuments.org/resources/systems/pennpaper/dnd35/soveliorsage/epicFeats.html#extended-life-span Extended Life Span]
**** Uhm, magic? Going by D&D books, it isn't that hard to get eternal life(one of the reasons why the aforementioned feat really, really, sucks). High level D&D characters(and especially epic ones) are somewhere between [[Physical God|extremely powerful]] and [[Powers That Be|obscenely powerful]] - cheating death, one way or another, isn't a big deal for them. When you're talking about characters like these it's more reasonable and logical to assume that they are still alive rather than that they died of old age.
*** The main problem with that is the only one they're sure of ''did'' die of old age. You can't assume that they all took Eternal Life feats when A. nobody else in the comic's world seems to have and B. the only Scribbler whose condition they know for certain is the one who is ''dead from old age''.
