How old do you think the rf4 characters are? Judging by their appearance i would say:
Vishnal:19,Kiel:18,Doug:19,Leon:21,Dylas:20,Arthur:22
I'm not sure about the girls though,but i think they said somewhere that forte was the oldest?

Nonononono, they can't all be younger than me Dx
Dylas: old
Leon: older
Kiel: ...18 sounds about right sadly ;-;
Vishnal: 23
Arthur: 26
Doug: I'd say 20-21, but he's a dwarf, sooo. Maybe they age differently, I don't know
As for the girls, no idea, still haven't played as Lest.

Xiao Pai is actually older than Lest, according to her dialogue which is adorable IMO :D
Hashimoto (the producer/writer) gave his opinion going by looks, and he put Kiel the youngest, then Arthur-Doug-Vishnal around the same age, then Dylas, then Leon being the oldest.
"When it comes to Vishnal, Doug and Arthur, the order’s quite tentative and difficult to place. Arthur may be calm and knowledgeable, but he’s still lacking experiences, which explains why he’s in the same age range with Vishnal and Doug. Kiel without doubt is definitely the youngest among them. But then, he added that since the game takes place in a fantasy world, so it should be reasonable to consider it when you think for the suitable age for marriage in this game. He gave no exact age for any of them and leave it to the player to decide."
For girls: Hashimoto ranks their ages by looks as Forte > Meg > Clorica > Dolce > Xiao > Amber "Forte’s the oldest among them. Also, despite her seriousness and sense of duty, she’s in fact the girliest of all. Xiao Pai and Kohaku look very young, with Kohaku looks the youngest. She may be indeed the youngest…Note the “May”. It’s important. He leaves it to the player to decide,
but after you’ve seen her marriage sub-event." - Both quotes are from an official magazine article that was posted on the Kaze no Travelers tumblr. (There are spoilers, beware)

For my opinion:
Leon: Early 30's
Dylas: Late 20's
Doug/Arthur/Vishnal: Early 20's
Kiel: 16-18
Lest: Early 20's, or 18-19
The gals are harder to place for me. I'd say that Forte/Meg are probably mid to late 20's, Clorica/Dolce mid 20's, Xiao early 20's (but older than Lest) and Amber "16-18" for appearance alone.

The thing about Meg and DOlly is that they're also both ELVES. Elves age MUCH slower than humans. (It's part of Meg's marriage events that this comes up.) So Meg and Dolly could legit be any age of maturity, and we can't tell because they don't age as quickly as humans.

I think what hashimoto meant by dylas and leon being the oldest is that they're guardians and so have slept for decades thus making them the oldest? Either way i cant quite picture leon being so old since he certainly doesnt act like it at times lol. I'd say he's around the range of 21-26~

Eh, I dunno, man. There are lots of people that don't act their age. (My avatar, for example. Jade Curtiss from Tales of the Abyss. Just look at that trolling face- the man's 35.)
It isn't outside the realm of possibility, though. Personally I can't see him in his early twenties. Late, definitely.

Going purely off looks, ignoring their personalities/histories/relationship to other characters:
Lest -15
Frey - 16
Clorica - 16
Margaret - 17
Amber - 10
Dolce - 18
Xiao Pai - 13
Forte - 19
Vishnal - 16
Arthur - 15
Dylas - 16
Kiel - 9
Doug - 14
Leon - 17
Volkanon - 62
Porcoline - ????
Jones - 19
Nancy - 28
Lin Fa - 20
Illuminata - 19
Blossom - 65
Bado - 32
Raven - 16
Barret - 17
I tried to imagine what my friends/peers and I looked like in high school as opposed to college. I'm 30 and I think all the characters look much younger than me or anyone my age, except for the old people.
Factor in their personalities, and you can add 5-10 years to most of these, except for the old people again.

It's like Anime. You just give up until the creator or character says it. BALLS

My guess
MC 19-20
I'd say this Frey/Lest look almost as young as Micah did.
Vishnal 20-22
He's an apprentice and he seems
Arthur 22-24
Of course
Dylas 10028 or so
Minus the 10000 of course since he's a magic horse guardian
Doug 21-23
Even if dwarves age differently, I don't think he seems mature. Even compared to Gaius lol. And that's not an insult.
Leo 10030-10032
Minus 10000 again. Mature looking and acting I suppose. Compared to Dylas.
Kiel 13 - 18
sounds right to me
Too lazy to judge the girls.

I was mostly joking by saying he's 13 lol
Age of consent in Japan is 13, but the age to get married is 18 for men and 16 for girls.

Since the bachelors are more popular, I'll judge them:
Kiel: 16
Vishnal: 18
Doug: 20 (human years)
Arthur: 19-20
Dylas: 21-22
Leon: 25-26

By looks? If so then:
Lest: 20/21
Frey: 19/20
Bachelors:
Kiel: 18
Dylas: Mid 20's
Vishnal: 19/20
Leon: Late 20's / Early 30's
Arthur: Mid 20's
Doug: 19/20 (But since he is an elf, It could be different.)
Bachelorettes:
Amber: 4 (Jk) Must be at the earliest to get married, I'd say by looks.
Xiao pai: Early 20's
Margaret: Early 30's
Forte: Mid 20's (Considering kiels age.)
Dolce: Mid 20's (If Pico is her sister, then that does narrow down how old she can be)
Clorica: Early 20's, Same as xiao really.
Villagers:
Porcoline

: Early/ Mid 50's
Nancy and Jones: Both around mid 40's
Lin fa: Early 40's
Volkanon: I'd say about....Mid 50's - Early 60's
Granny Blossom: Late 70's, early 80's?
Bado: Definitely mid 40's for me
Pico: 9-11? Looks that age
Ventuswill: « Harvest Goddess » knows. 1000+
(Your child): Around 4/5
Illuminatia: (I heard something about her being older than she looks, around the same age as Volkanon) Around 50's.
I don't really know, But that's just what I imagine their ages are.

Amber seem like 10-13 to me. She probable the youngest age to get marry in Japan or medieval times. However, we never know unless the creator said the age of each characters. Beside it's the MC marry them and not us lol
