I read the OP and nothing else because I'm tired. So forgive me if I'm just repeating something already said.
I'll start by stating that the majority of Misericorde is between 29 and 40. Our youngest is 20-22ish, while our oldest is 48, I believe. We're not exactly geezers, but we're not the Hardy Boys either.
Uther is 31, and he's been going to war (not getting into fights, I mean big kid war.) since he was 15, so he has that "battlefield wisdom" that makes him seem older than he actually is. His mental age is probably around 35-40.Â
I think there need to be more older characters. In my opinion, there seems to be a disproportionate amount of teenagers fighting primals out there. It stands to reason that the truly effective adventurers would be the ones with military and survival experience. People who know how to kill and how to do business, not idealistic Jpop warriors. Players will always play what they want, and they have every right to do so. I don't avoid RP with young characters or anything, I just think the seasoned warrior archetype is underplayed in this game. Where are my Saurfangs, Gandalfs, Obi-Wan Kenobis, and Ra's al Ghuls? Old fighters, whether they be good, evil, melee, or magical, are awesome.
