It will decrease to the lowest possible limit, so if you have 49 you will have 30, if 67 you will have 50. A detailed description of the age can be found on the hero statistics page.
Death
In The Watchmaker, you will often become a victim of a dark reaper. You can die by falling from a height or by hitting various objects. It's very hard to estimate how high your character can jump. Often you can die trying to simply shorten your path to the next point.
Life
There is no health bar in this game. During gameplay your hero is constantly aging, and any damage inflicted by enemies speeds up this process. In order to regenerate the life of your hero, you must use the points of records and keys that will reverse the hero's age by 20 years.
