Character Age
I recently made an edit saying that Akarai (as well her counterpart, Rei) is at the age of 15, base don Cyllene's statement. This was removed because it's not a clear as to what their age may actually be and is just an assumption on Cyllene's part which is understandable, there's nothing explicitly stating they 15 years old. However, Selene and Elio's pages also state that the characters are "around 11" based on an observed assumption from Wicke. I think the pages should be more consistent with one-another, and I suggest that Elio and Selene's pages be edited to remove their ages that they are 11, or edit the pages to suggest that Rei and Akari are "around 15" like the other two pages.

- I think listing their ages as "around 15" would be fine, as long as we're not explicitly stating that they are 15. --SnorlaxMonster 05:38, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
- I feel it's better no not have them listed at all for either one, which I have gone ahead and removed the ages for Elio and Selene. And to a lesser extent, I believe this could also apply to the Trial Captains as "11-19" is also not a precise answer, and is simply an observed assumption gathered from two lines of dialogue.

- There is no "ifs, ands, or maybes" for the trial captain ages, the two dialogues are explicit enough to give an age range.--ForceFire 05:22, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
