Silmaril

Yes, they physically age a bit. An "Elvish" year is 144 solar years, but I am sure that they age a bit slower than that physically. They say that Elrond was ancient-looking when Frodo awakes in Rivendell (well, he was ancient), so yes, Elves age, just not as quickly as we do. Don't Elves come of age at about 100 years old? Right? Or did I just hallucinate reading that somewhere?
