More Character Poll Fun-Ages, Another little fun poll...how old is your average character? Options

[ElFenrir]

I'm wondering about ages. I get in the mood to post polls now and again. Some of the choices have bigger spreads(18-20 is a pretty small spread, but 30-39 is quite large), mainly due to just me picturing different cutoffs(18-20 being adult...but still not that magic 21. 21-23 is right before the mid 20s, but might not be that different..bah. I just jammed some numbers in there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) )

I'm a mid 20s fan(24-29), mostly, it seems. They are young enough still to be at the ''top of their physical game'' (alright, I'm thinking about this sportwise...when I keep hearing that the prime examples are, indeed, usually in their 20s), but also old enough to have studied quite a bit if they are the more studious types(18-24 is 6 years in college studying electronics, for example, which is a fair amount of time....not to mention any other time spent practicing.) Of course, you could have a 50 year old with no ''Shadowrunner skills'' to speak of if they were forced into the shadows late, and the Olympics have proved some rather young people can do amazing things. This isn't more or less what ages are believable; it's just what you like.

I also like the mid 20s because you CAN have a fair amount of experience in life...but still have plenty of room to grow, as well. Really, it's just something I notice(most of my characters run into that), with 18-20 and 30-39 taking second and third place with my characters. I sometimes will bring out an older person or young sprat, but it's not as often; sometimes I do get those concept ideas, though.

So, what about everyone here?
