Rune Bearer's - do they live FOREVER? Or just...

[Vextor]

No, Riou and Jowy will continue to age normally. This comes from Murayama, the creator of the Suikoden series.

so all the true rune bearers are immortal then (or as immortal as vampires are, never dying of old age) because ted lived for 300 years...

[Nikisaur]

Gilgamesh - Yeah, except I'd be careful with the use of the term immortal. That implies that the bearer cannot die at all. I think 'ageless' is a better description, as they do not physically grow/age (past a certain point), but can still be killed like any other mortal being.

Maybe he's a vampire in disguise, sucking on human blood... Ok no.

But as Nikisaur pointed out above, Immortal is a very loosely used word. It's even used like random in Highlander.

But, then again, Ageless isn't fitting either, they age, they're only remaining "Intact" so to speak. Only their "Inside" change.

[gilgamesh31]

i would use invincible or invunerable as words implying that they cannot die at all.

would biological immortal be a better term to use?
