I think this is a poll we've done before, but it's been QUITE SOME TIME SINCE THEN. This is something totally irrelevant that barely comes up in IC conversation, but all the same, I'm curious! The question of the day is:

How old are your characters?

Mog's 12 (http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Mog_%28Final_Fantasy_VI%29).

I kiiiiind of assume that there's a slightly different maturity rate for Moogles vs humans, though.

Skydive's...er. Seven weeks? Something like that. About two months.

Mentally he's in his late teens/early twenties.

Raven is twenty-five.

She appears to be approximately seventeen. I'm sure she looks like a spoiled thirteen-year-old when having one of her hissy fit moments.

[saint-sami.livejournal.com]

Physically and mentally, Sasami's 10, but her actual age is that plus seven hundred. Reason for that? Spending those seven hundred in suspended animation.

Superman's easily in his mid 20s.

And Dr. Forrester, I believe, is well into his 50s.

Cavil is somewhere in his early to mid-forties BELIEVE IT OR NOT, but he has physically always been old and grumpy. :[ His life, so hard.

WOW MAN YOU SHOULD REALLY LOOK INTO SOME BOTOX OR SOMETHING

24 (ish) if you use the general 4:1 Marvel time ratio and the assumption that she was around 17 when she arrived. I'm saying her 25th is in January, not that Marvel ever gave her a birth date, I just use the month she premiered in.

Also assuming that Marvel didn't decide to age her up/down during any of her time-trips which would be entirely possible so YMMV.

And you don't count the timeline she spent as the Mother Askani. But if you do for some odd reason, she's well over 100 by now.

75. This is headcanon, but he's referred to as a 'boy' in source material and so it was my assumption that he's relatively young for an elf, i.e., not far past their age of maturity (which is like 40s or 50s or something). He died at 70 & has been dead for five years.

By human reckoning, he's about 28.

"How old are you, Koltira?"

"75."

"How long have you been 75...?"

*choked up* XB "...about five years."

[hulkkeysmash.livejournal.com]

Hey look Kitty's not dead. ALSO.

Pepper - 26
Bruce - 44
Orson - 107
Nico - 19
Toro - 18

Ravage is... man, idk
Mew's a good few thousand years old at least. Ancestor of all Pokemon here hi how ya doing.
Artemis is fourteen, but mentally he's a lot higher
Ash is... holy shit I think Ash is still supposed to be college-age

[liarboo.livejournal.com]

Lassiter's age isn't for sure but I peg it 39-40.

Usopp's is perpetually 17. He has been 17 for about 11 years now. Poor kid.

Squirrel Girl I aged around 18 for my own sanity.

[shawnedium.livejournal.com]

you said peg and lassie in the same sentence

why is usopp forever 17?

[stutterbird.livejournal.com]

Abby is 17 now! She celebrated a birthday in the City.
Envy is a bajillion. He's old. But still a fat fetus.
Angelica is probably in her thirties. Maybe forties.

[goryteller]

Katurian has no official age, being from a play, although in the premiere, David Tennant was 32. I actually wanted a slightly older PB, but had no luck finding one I thought really fit. (EDIT: I would've just used David Tennant, but finding icons not from Doctor Who would have been a wondrous adventure!)

LONG STORY SHORT: My Katurian is around 24 or 25. One day I'll settle on a concrete age. /o\

[pike]

now i have the mental image of nigel colbie being eternity boyfriends with doctor who. MY WORLD. IT IS SHAKEN.

[jewpryde.livejournal.com]

Kitty is 18
Jan is going to be 27 in a few days
Amara 21-22 (I THINK? ANA OR KRIS HALP ME HERE)
Sue is 19 (lol)

[liadrin.livejournal.com]

Just barely over the age of 100~

Although GLaDOS's equipment and development is dated to the early 80s, her AI was not activated until 1996. Given that the events of Portal are not properly situated in the Half-Life timeline, this makes GLaDOS anywhere from between the ages of 6 to 20. Personally I like to think that GLaDOS is about 12.

When I entered the game I was under the false impression that Nigel was 16 in the movie. A rewatch revealed he is in fact 17, soon to be going on 18 given City-time.

Although Morrigan's mother has been around FOREVER I'm assuming that Morrigan herself is the age that she appears -- somewhere in her late twenties.

BILLY • 10/11 since he had his birthday [headcanon birthday of October 23 when his birthday short first aired]
SHOCKWAVE • somewhere between 9,897,095 - 9,997,095 ...i can never make up mind mind what he is [headcanon birthday of September 5]

this one's difficult, stay with me on it

[unnamed-nothing.livejournal.com]

Because Trowa's childhood is all mangled and nobody knows when he was born or where he came from for sure, his age is often put at the same one with the other pilots with parentheses and a question mark.

However, for that same reason, and because he just looks older than them, I mark him a year older.

SO. He was 16 when he first got here, which was in late December 08, having been pulled from way early in his year.

Because I tend to give him an early birthday, he technically if not physically turned 17 a little while after his arrival. Since then, the actual amount of time to make him physically 17 has passed.

So yes. Right now he's actually 17, and is technically counting that way too, but in a couple of months he'll be 17 and technically counted as 18. And then in the middle of 2010 or so he'll be physically and technically 18.

THE GLORY OF CANON WITH ACTUAL MONTH/DAY-SPECIFIED TIMELINES.

[vneckshirt.livejournal.com]

18!

his official birthday is, September 22nd 1991!

yeah, yeah

[meowminx]

Selina is 30 in the Cityverse. This may or not be representative of her actual canon age, for which my estimates vary due to conflicting origin stories. In any case, she's 5-8 years younger than Bruce Wayne in canon.

[pacifister]

Phoenix is thirty-four.

Adrian is fifty.

Remus is thirty-seven.

Quatre is roughly sixteen/seventeen. His time here made that a bit weird, but he'll count his next birthday as his eighteenth since he already had one here that was his seventeenth. I don't get it either.

/goes to work omg late

more age shenanigans

[bluffing-ruffle.livejournal.com]

24 as pulled from canon point.

Turned 25 a few months thereafter. Currently holding at 25.

[namesnotjack.livejournal.com]

Alex, like Nigel, is also 17, starting to edge into 18 territory!

[pike]

why did you have to use the creepy icon.

[shawnedium.livejournal.com]

THIRTY :(

[hellcommander.livejournal.com]

Hiruma is 18! Just turned 18 in November

Axel is unknown. He's been a Nobody for anywhere between 1-10 years and he's anywhere between 15 and 25 physically.

Hollow Ichigo is about 15 or 16 physically, but TECHNICALLY he's only been "alive" for a year or so.

Link (not appearing in this game yet!) is 12 and a half!

[shadowinari.livejournal.com]

I have to assume Ichigo and Hichigo are 16. Unless birthdays in the Soul Society don't count.

[shawnedium.livejournal.com]

As for other characters:

Cable is approximately...49/50. Yes, he looks older than he is. It's always been like that.
Harley Quinn...I guestimated at anywhere from 26/27 to 30.
Booster Gold had his birthday recently (I just failed at doing anything about it). He's 31 now.
Harry Osborn is 30/31. Don't listen to Quesada.
Chris Keller is probably 48.

I have oldies.
