Forum:How long can a goul live?

Gouls live a long time I see. More than 200 years we've seen. Some can tell you what it was like before the bombs fell and what it was like when the bombs fell. But do gouls die naturely?

We don't know. Desmond Lockheart may be the oldest ghoul alive; he ghoulified himself rather than it being something that happened to him, and I'd estimate he was in his late 40s to early 60s when he ghoulified himself, which may very well have been before the war but was definitely near the time of the war.

Assuming he was 60 in 2077, he would have been born in 2017 and would be 260 years old during the events of Point Lookout. I don't know of any particular ghoul (aside from a feral ghoul glowing one in the National Guard Armory) that could be older. Kris (talk) 01:19, July 25, 2010 (UTC)

The wiki page said that ghoul's cells regenerate faster than humans so a ghoul with a high regeneration rate could live forever. Most ghouls however probably do die natuarally, but most die from combat, accidents, or suicide(so i assume). Yum Brahmin 17:40, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

When I'm in the room? Not long. Unless im roleplaying feral, then a hell of alot longer than any humans.
