While I was looking up Life Spans on WoWWiki, I searched a bit more on that page and found that it said this passage about the Undead. (The first part is common sense, but read all of it)
"Forsaken do not age, as they are already dead. Forsaken do not mature into adulthood, an individual becomes Forsaken upon death. While technically immortal, some Forsaken exhibit signs of old age, losing their identities and eventually sentience. They appear as dying old humans, feeble and scared, with a cold growing inside them, and forgeting who they are. They are losing their mind to the Scourge, and would eventually become a "mindless one" - an unintelligent zombie. All forsaken fear this process, as it means they revert to the Scourge's will and lose themselves to the Lich King and his dominance. The Forsaken will often kill these poor souls, perhaps as a form of mercy."
So, just to tell players that are Undead to remember that.
