The ages for adulthood and up are estimates for a very healthy, advanced civilization with decent sanitation and good medical knowledge. Unadvanced or barbaric civilizations have much lower age, even bringing Ancient down to 40 years of age instead of 80. The general idea is that numbers in this chart can be as much as halved for the very poor or unadvanced civilizations.
When constitution drops as a result of age, HP are reduced retroactively. If constitution drops to 0 or below as result of age, the character dies.
Both bonuses and penalties from old age are the GM's discretion. Very active individuals may reduce or eliminate the penalties, and nonthinking types may not see bonuses either.
