in truce at bakara epi was about 160 and a human with good medical care. i mean as long as your mind can stay sane cybernetics can keep you ticking so i would say 200 is a pretty good age if you have modern medicine

Morellians easily live to be well over 250... we're not sure exactly how long they live, since the only morellian i've seen was 230 or something, and he looked like he was about 50... so...

OK what's a Morellian and where do I find them? 
As for Eppie she was starting to look old but was still quite spry so perhaps human lifespans have doubled with good medical care |

Morellians are humans in every way shape and form except for their long lifespan... and they tend to stick to more low-tech weaponry, like firearms 
it's in one of the cracken books... at least the character is...

Morellians are near humans, found in Alliance Intelligence Reports. It's a neat book. Morellians are like wild west meets star wars. Think Clint Eastwood with a 48 calibur pistol and a repulsor bike instead of a horse.

Sounds cool.
And also like that old cartoon, Marshal Bravestar.

Do they have any Stat differences?
For that matter do they have any official stats at all or are they like esoomians, one NPC but no info on the species |

I've just realised apart from leaving gravity wells you don't pull G's in space. You do whave innertia which has similar effects but no Gs. Also in the rogue squadren books X-wings have innertial compensators or dampeners or some such thing... It must be stress that prematurely ages pilots.
It's the silent killer people.

they appear to have standard human stats, the only difference is their lifespan, and the story factor involving a love of firearms

I know some of you are against D20 so I take my life in my own hands when I say as far as life spans go, buy either "Alien Anthology" or the "Ultimate Alien Anthology" for info on aging aliens. As for the Core Rule Book for the D20 system, it says that someone powerful in the force can live longer. While most humans live in their 80's, jedi will live just beyond their 100th year. I'm not sure of the name but I believe that in the book Courtship of Princes Leia there was an older woman who could see into the future or past as easily as the present sitting on the info Luke needed for his academy. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but she was rather old, maybe in her 100's. As for Yoda...I've read what Wizards of the Coast had to say and they basically came off as not knowing. I think George Lucas is going to keep it that way. I'm sure if you read some of the propaganda you'll find some interesting stuff on him though. I once read somewhere online that Boba Fett was actually a woman.  The movie kind of proved that one wrong though...

If you remember in ROTJ he talks to Luke before he dies about a ball park figure of how old he is...
