Title: How Old is Your Character?
Post by: Jack Sinist (•̪●) on May 31, 2007, 09:15:08 am
How old was your character when he joined BoC and how old is he now?

I use the official UO Lore time (5 Ultima years in one real life year)

So Jack joined when he was 14 and is now 20
John joined when he was 19 and is now 30

post away!

I've always hated putting an age on Raiden... I guess I don't want to see him get old and ultimately die  :'(

At least not while i'm having so much fun with him ;)

I did have a mess around with the UOCAL that Qom made a little while back though...

This is all approximates and rumour but...

Raiden returned to Cove and joined the army at 21 years old.

He's been in the army 8 yrs approx. Making him around 29 years old.

He was accepted into the Grenadiers 7 yrs ago and has been a Grenadier Corporal for around 3 yrs.

I think... :P

Dalamar was around 152 when he joined.. so he would be now around 165 years old... Nice to be elf and sound old and still be young  ;D

Hmm Dyril (commoner) came to cove at the age of barly 19 he has been "in cove" for almost 5 years so hes like 23 or 24 now.

Marcus came to cove at about the age of 25/26 and would be about 27 or 28 i think maybe approaching his 30's?? Eeegad!! hes getting OLD! and all his scars/brands are from the age of 7 - 20 or so. and hes COVERED in them.

Hmm, Qom arrived here less then year ago and he was 30 then.
Seems that he's 33, 34 now.

Damn, he needs to have his beard trimmed, he looks like an old bum...

Tom's 40 now sooo.... he would have been about 30 when he joined boC, Crap, that makes no sense!

I dunno really, I'll have to use the thingy Qom made some time. She joined at 19-20 and shes 26 now.. though doesn't really seem right.

As I've said earlier...

Trying to add the passing of time to chars will make them die someday ;)

Eeeep !!!

Given Erik was 24 when joining that would make him about 33 right now....Erik -IS- an old dog!

I think it's good, maturing your role play as your character gets older.


Title: Re: How Old is Your Character?
Post by: Erik Arkay/Evinyatar on May 31, 2007, 03:29:17 pm
We should do Hrothgar's....

He was 45 when joining....53454337733737 years old now....Hmmm*Rubs chin* There's something wrong with your calculator!

So that's why Dell and him became such good friends? The young giant and the middle aged anarchist.  ;D

Ack... I play old gits!

Kazuo Shinrai was halfway his 40s when he joined, that meakes him nearing the end of the 50s now. His age fits his roleplay though :)

Kasei Senshi was roughly 30 when he joined and is 40 now. Guess the age could make up for my detoriorating pvp skills.

Moraine DiGoraz...
I started him for The Lost Marauders once, that was about 5 years ago. Back then he was 25 and thus he would be 50 now. Luckily he disguises well!

Err..I put in the date Mela was made and it said this:

58th 5 335

Please tell me Mela isn't 58 years old>_>

No, what you do is you put in the date that she was born and get a number (like you did)
Then take today's date and translate it, and then you look at the year date and see how much it differs.

Post by: Kas Valentine on June 01, 2007, 06:04:37 pm
Heh heh I've only ever played human characters and the same formula applies to their age, I don't go for anything fancy. Kas is exactly the same age as me, twenty of the five.

So he was 18 when he first set foot in Britannia.

Hmm apologies for double posting but.
Looking over Marcus' Age and his history... he seems far too young and the times spent between events in his history seem all cramped together.
So maybe hes actually much older than I was thinking at first, or perhaps he needs a history re-write.

I can do it for you if you want, or ICQ me and I'll guide you through it.


Title: Re: How Old is Your Character?
Post by: qom_riyadh on June 02, 2007, 03:01:27 pm
Okay okay, I'll add some additional tool for the calendar:

How old is my char?

One will input the date of joining and char's age at moment of joining and will receive his current UO age.

Happy?

Thirty-one.. I think.


Title: Re: How Old is Your Character?
Post by: Nicholi Ravnthorn on June 03, 2007, 10:50:43 pm
And don't forget to add the age your character was when you started to play them... I don't think I've ever seen a character that's been played sence birth =P


Title: Re: How Old is Your Character?
Post by: qom_riyadh on June 03, 2007, 10:55:24 pm
What does it change, Nich?

You input char's age at the moment of joining boc, it's obvious he/she ain't a newborn


Title: Re: How Old is Your Character?
Post by: Nicholi Ravnthorn on June 03, 2007, 11:07:42 pm
Yes, I was reminding people that they would need to do that, or their numbers would be rather lower


Title: Re: How Old is Your Character?
Post by: Mela Arkay on June 03, 2007, 11:23:57 pm
Except Mela>_> Well she was actually played since like the age of 3-4.

Kurt was 16 when he was first created and joined the baronship at 21.  At 31 he is a Regular Dragoon in the army. :)
