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?

21.

Almost 22! His "birthday" is in a couple months.

>_> Sweet, my own page.

[hackeralastair]

AHAHAHA WE RULE PAGES TOGETHER

also he'd better dish on the birthday so there can be parties.

also how are you older than me dammit!

XD Saitou's is in February....

Shego is said to be in either her late twenties or, at most, early thirties. She has a degree in child development, soooo that kind of gives us guidelines as to her age? She's not as old as Dr. D, who's the same age as Kim's dad, but she's not as young as Kim, so assuming Kim's dad is in his forties and the known fact that Kim is 18 by the end of the series, Shego's somewhere in between that range. I like saying she's 29 for posterity's sake.

Sally Jupiter WELL AT THE END OF HER CANON SHE'S LIKE, what, 65 years old? Crap I'm too lazy to whip out my Watchmen book but I think that's right unless you're going with the movie that aged her up to 67 B|. But from the time I'm taking her, sheeee's...uh...32. Damn I took her from when she was young.

Audrey II is just a few weeks old if I'm assuming things correctly. He's definitely not a year old, that's for sure. He was just a ickle baby plant when Seymour found him, and I'm assuming the events in Little Shop couldn't have been any longer than, like, a month.

Ichigo Kurosaki is 15, lol. Maybe 16 now, since the canon has spanned at least from Spring to Winter, and his birthday is July 16. Nobody threw him a party ;~;

Victoria Hand, I would say, is between 30-32. She's not nearly as old as Norman, and since there is no official age on her yet, I guess that because she's still pretty inexperienced at times, and in her flashback, which was either a year or a few months before Dark Reign (can't remember how long), she looked much younger and was, in my opinion, a lot more naive.

Schrodinger is... No fucking idea! His body is like... 12 or 13, but mentally he is older than that, and you can't trust his body image since he was a genetic experiment and is immortal, and most likely doesn't age, since the rest of Millenium doesn't. He could have been born anywhere between 1945 and 1999. Yeah, really narrowed it down, huh?

[olesia]

Ruka is supposedly 12, as she is now ten months (almost eleven months) removed from a canon where she was 11. She has no canon birthday.

Bunny I think is still 15.

[dragony]

of course, Ruka might be a genetic experiment, but we'll never know because canon takes forever to explain anything ever.

[hecho-en-ca-usa.livejournal.com]

Robyn Slinger is 24.

Victor Mancha is...hard to say. Physically around four, programmed to think he was a teenager on activation, so 18-19ish mentally.

[symmachy]

Scatty is 2517 years old, soon to be 2518.

Rikku is 17 years old.

[quickdrawkid.livejournal.com]

KID is complicated. He looks like late 20s-early 30s at least, but he's about 20 as of November 11, if I did the math right. I probably did not do the math right.

[hackeralastair]

Man. Football's rough on the body.

[unnamed-nothing.livejournal.com]

Oh, well. If we're counting including from how far back or in the future they're from?

Yeah. Uh. Hm.

I personally consider their canon as having taken place in 2495. And this is... let's say 2010 for rounding benefits. SO. Trowa's gone back, uh. 485 years into the past, now. And is currently 17**. Therefore, if you want to get really, really picky?

He's -468 years old.

...Mmyep.

Oh, and with the mental maturity of... of... of someone way the hell older, dammit. And far more bitter.


**See first age note in meme.

WHY ARE YOU HERE

YOU AREN'T BORN YET

GO HOME

D|

[bluffing-ruffle.livejournal.com]

And strictly speaking, if not for time shenanigans, being born in 1992 means Edgeworth would be all of v. late 17 right now.

JAILBAIT!

[olesia]

Legal enough in my state. 8)

[sway-over-time.livejournal.com]

Suzi is 18

[borrowyourpower.livejournal.com]

Like Pocky said, TFA is stupid when it comes to time. I figure OP, SP, and BA are all in the 2000s.

I dunno why but I figure BA to be the youngest of the three. Of course physically she's in her late 20s early 30s. Mentally she's much younger, like still in her mid teens half the time. What is maturity?




Holly (for when she gets her elven ass in here) is about 86. A young adult by elf standards. Although when I bring her in she's physically going to be in her 60s? (I still can't figure this out, time seems a little effed in Artemis Fowl, hurf time travel) Soooooooo, back to being an adolescent with all the fun stuff that goes with that. 8D

[thronor.livejournal.com]

Wally is 14.

[misschocolover.livejournal.com]

Megan is around 17 by Earth standards, M'stra being from a decade plus in her future is now 29.

Brenda is 18.

Betty is ... I think 34 or so.

[pacifister]

Fff, okay, if we're going by actual year of birth and how old they would be, Remus should be fifty, going on fifty-one at the beginning of March. And dating someone that should be seventeen.

There's canon evidence to back up this cradle robbing, I swear.

[ajrimmer-ssc.livejournal.com]

LOL

BRITS WHO LIKE YOUNGER PARTNERS AND HAVE CANON EVIDENCE TO BACK IT UP UNITE

/brofist

[namesnotzippy.livejournal.com]

Blurr is young for a 'bot. That's all I know. Young, but old enough to go on many missions and things and make the Elite Guard. So. A little older than Bumblebot, younger than Sentinel. Idk.

Toph is canonically 12. And I couldn't find a birthday for her anywhere, so.. She's been in the City for awhile and is probably 13 by now. Or something.

Xena is um. Late 30s/early 40s? In the prime of her life, I tell ya.

Slipstream is less than a year old, but she's a clooone of Starscream who's been around for awhile. :D

Agatha is 18.

[xepitaph.livejournal.com]

Yuugi is 17~ ish. Despite how he looks, he's older than most of his friends besides Honda. (Honda was born in April, where Yuugi was born in June.) Yes, older than Kaiba (who is the tallest teenager) by 3 months!! Surprisingly, Kazuki Takahashi does say he grows throughout the course of the series. (Or rather implies he does grow.) Gonna be hitting puberty the same time Bucky is, though. *stares at GX...*

Dark Yuugi died when he was 14-15, so he's technically 14-15 + 3000.

If we're counting what age they should be now... He would be the exact age he's at in GX -- 29.

[iron-fister.livejournal.com]

I AM SO LATE

Okay, so um. Danny is SOMEWHERE between the ages of 33 and 34, but for the City I chose for him to be 34 because 33 makes me giggle.

Larfleeze.... fuck, he's all-ages-old. He just wanted all those numbers, okay?

Tupolski I have pinned in his early 40's... maybe mid-forties. IDK. Like hell he'll tell anyone his name anyway.

I would put my other 'characters-I-might-app-to-CNC' buuuuuuut idk i think i'm going to make a poll about that

[bestmachine.livejournal.com]

OH GOSH, this is totally off topic, but you're the only one I know who would understand. I just found the creepiest Ariel reading in history, and I must share (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFu8YPW2tRE) it with you.

omg.

[allshock-notalk.livejournal.com]

Soundwave is nine million at least if you include the millions of years he spent in stasis. More like five million if you don't, which is kind of an average Cybertronian age, but he's still well experienced, obv.

Ted's like. 35. IDK, comic book age, lmao.

Walker is harder to say. I'm not sure how his species works biologically, but considering his horridly powerful patience, I'd peg him at 40 Earth years. No idea, though.

[notsoloyal]

stop getting younger D|

/pokes head in from cleaning spree

According to John Rogers' blog, Parker is in her mid-twenties. That's as specific as canon gets. Which is about par for the course, knowing Parker.

[lobsters-claw.livejournal.com]

Oh, hey, so late.

Canon has nothing even vaguely stated about how old Lobster was or when he was born. Given his general appearance and level of experience/competence, however, I tend to place him as having been in his late thirties, maybe early forties, by the time he died. And then his spirit slumbered for 60 years, which it's debatable if he has any sort of recollection of.)

(As a side note: I can't actually use this unless canon decides to go ahead and say it? But given that he died in 1939, I think it's entirely possible, age-wise, that he fought in World War I, providing military training that would later prove useful for crime-fighting.)

[bet-on-bolton.livejournal.com]

LATE, but at least it's not a response required meme thing!

From where I've taken him, Troy's eighteen.

But only physically. Mentally he's about five.
