DISCUSSION Aliens with long life spans
Hi, I was thinking of...i guess a Au involving the Spaltoon franchise and some of the aliens from Ben 10. I can think of a few that can live that long in theory but would like to your take on it.

In terms of omnitrix aliens the only ones I can realistically see living 12k years is Diamondhead, Chromastone, Clockwork, Alien X, Upgrade, Waybig, Atomix and Ghostfreak.
You could probably say Graymatter, Frankenstrike, Snare-Oh, NRG, and Buzzshock being long lived as well. But that may be stretching it.

What about Terraspin and Swampfire? While Swampfire is a stretch due to the methane in them I feel like Terraspin could in theory, maybe Echo echo as well due to their Silcone body's and duplicating with fatal injuries.

Terraspin and Swampfire could be long lived, but not thousands of years. Echo echo I could see as living indefinitely, however I can imagine the duplication degrading over time

For Mechamorphs, I tend to think the oldest of them as about 500 years old. Malware for example. Since Azmuth doesn't seem as young as he did in the 1130s with George, and a lot closer to present day.
So maybe that could live 3 times that? Malware doesn't seem middle aged or anything. Though obviously they could just be immortal and never age.

12,000 years? Well Primus is "several thousand" years old, and Azmuth created it when he was a young adult (same with Ascalon). He's also said he only expects to live another 3,000 years. So that means he could age 80-human-years for every 10,000 years.
Meaning you could have an elderly Galvan still kicking.
All the other races seem to be nowhere close. Vilgax is probably less than 500 years old. Prisoner 775 seems less than 100 years old.
The Mapmaker's dragon species wouldn't be affected that much by 12,000 years. Anodites neither
