Warhammer 40k fluff thread VI: They see me Ward'en, they haten

[hamishspence]

Czevak had to wear a cryogenic suspension suit to preserve him, he was so aged- so that does show he's old.

specific mention was made of the fact that he was far, far too old for Juvenat to counteract his frailty, and he needed to make extensive use of cybernetics just to be able to walk and use his arms.

I've got Grey Knights but not the next two in the trilogy- and I couldn't find that bit. Indeed, I found a bit that said he was "dismembered by cultists" and while Imperial medical knowledge was able to save him, from then on he needed an exoskeleton.

Though a Cardinal in Dark Heresy: Blood of Martyrs, while "well into their third century" so around 250-odd, plus or minus a few years- needs massive medical assistance to survive, he's so ancient. Maybe Cardinals move less than Inquisitors do.

So 300 does seem to be near the upper limit.
