Androgeus is Ageless too, I think. I don't know much about him, but I'm sure she's been around an awful long time.
Ralzakark is supposed to have been around since before the Dawn too. ISTR Sandy saying this was one of the reasons people risked going to Dorastor, since Ralzakark remembered how things used to be
And isn't Jaldon Toothmaker immortal too?

I wouldn't be so sure... If the Hero Wars are a 55 year story arc, then assuming you are 15 at the start, you would be 70 by the end, and I would have thought that ageing would have had some effect by then. And I don't think many starting HW Characters are only 15 either!
Mind you, I don't suppose many heroes caught up in the Hero Wars will be likely to die of old age either...

This bit I do agree with (isn't the Hill of Gold an Immortality HQ?)
