Personally, I think the Forsaken bodies age (and die) just like any other (non-oathrodbound) channeler.
What makes them immortal is that the DO can tranmigrate them into new bodies when the old bodies die, with their memories intact. I don't think there is anything more to it than that.

I think the Dark One "plucks" their threads from the Pattern and holds them apart from it.

Or perhaps Moggy meant to ask for that as part of her reward?
