Editing Alia:Commoners and Levels (section)

==Age and Level==

People begin to accumulate experience at the onset of adulthood, see [http://www.d20srd.org/srd/description.htm#age] (15 for humans).  To determine an NPC's level, multiply the xp rate time the number of years older than that age and look up on the level/xp chart. 

For example, a 40 year old human with an xp rate of 250, has 25*250 = 6250 xp, and will be fourth level.  If we break down the age catagories for humans who earn 250xp per year a typical group of 100 humans a typical level/age category distribution would be: 

 20 children (ages 1-15)
 10 level 1, 
 15 level 2, 
 20 level 3,
 20 level 4, middle aged
 10 level 5, old 
  5 level 6, venerable  

(With the older members applying age modifiers to ability scores).
