    He doesn't. The boss asked him to design one as a Deadfire stretch goal, he did and continued to work on it I guess because he finds it fun

    D&D 3 is around 280 pages so Josh's is streamlined by comparison.

    30s sounds about right to me given his appearance and personality. I'd put Durance as late 40s/50s.

    He'd have been late teens in the Saints War, so early 30s sounds about right. 50s fits Durance, probably late 30s/early 40s for Grieving Mother, since she'd been a midwife for a while when she delivered the first Hollowborn. The nonhuman characters are harder to pin down; orlans don't live very long so Hiravias could be as young as his late teens while looking older, while Sagani could be 50s/60s onwards. Aloth has dialogue that puts him in his 60s, I think. For Zahua, I'm not sure if I prefer the idea of him being older than he looks, or being younger

    He's dodging a bullet by simply not having that option there at all.

    I think he's messed the timeline up a bit here. PoE starts in 2823, the character sheet says 2820, and he says this is one year before PoE.

    No doubt, in the Dyrwood, they increment the calendar by 3 for every passing year. /s ;)

    Going by the character sheet, this is going to be the most autistic RPG system in a world full of autistic RPG systems.
