23
I usually base my characters' age, if anyone actually cares when I'm playing which they don't seem to, on our starting level. |

My last character was around 100 (going on 17 by maturity of actions) - a half-faerie dragon. |

42.
I usually play drow characters whose age tends to be in the 100s. Mentally, they're probably in the 30 - 40 (I really need to do something with my life) bracket.

Half faerie dragon and half human?
In any event, that sound slike a lot of fun.
Oh, and I just thought I'd mention how much I liked your 'Evil Seeps In' (something close to that) story.

I turned 23 in August :) I'm currently in college, and would have probably gradutated by now if I hadn't taken a couple terms off my junior year (finding out you have fibromyalgia sucks). |

I'm younger than the Forgotten Realms setting, and that's the only clue I'm giving.
I tend to play characters within the 26-33 range preferably, or their racial equivalent. Though I've played characters as young as 15, as well as some old relics. I've got a severe case of alt-itis. |

Thanks, Xnella! If not for my 'job,' (or family business) I would have felt still 21. Oh, well, we do what we must. |
