Math is Hard! (age question)

How old is Loghain at the beginning of Origins? How old was Maric when he disappeared? (I know DG has confirmed that he's dead, but for fic-writing purposes, as far as I'm concerned he's only comic-book dead.)

The inconsistency of dating between novels and game makes my poor little non-mathematically-inclined brain hurt.

This has bugged me for some time. Why does Eamon look so goddamned old? If it's from being sick, no one comments on it. Are they just being polite. or did his age get retconned like so much else?

In my head, he's just one of those guys who stress ages pretty rapidly, and as arl he's under a lot of stress. (And Teagan looks like he's in his early 30s to me.)

Or, you know, limitation of the game engine. I've put together head morphs, there's not much space between "a little rough around the edges" and "decrepit".
