Ages of Pre-Era one characters

[Maquet_Ontos]

I would assume that Rashek appears the age he ascended as the lord ruler, which likely puts him in his mid-early 20's, describing him as tall and young, but not as a boy. Kel being in his mid-late 30's would likely have not pegged him as young if he were in his early 30's.

Alendi I believe was around 16 when he met Kwaan and spent "decades" leading armies before going to the well. This would charitably put Alendi around Kel's age at the well.

 

Does this seem accurate?

Seems likely. Rashek may have been older than mid 20s though if Vin's use of Malatium showed what he was like before, though it might have just shown an alternate life he could have lived

It could be she could see any age with Malatium, I think

I think Rashek was very young when he took the power ... maybe about 20? Kwaan describes Rashek as "the lad" and says he hates Khlennium, "with the passion of envious youth".

 

Alendi's hair turned white at 25, which was taken as a sign he was the Hero. Kwaan does say that when he met Alendi he was a "young lad" not yet shaped by "a decade of leading armies" but I imagine he didn't start leading armies immediately. If he wasn't hailed as the Hero until maybe 25 then possibly 35 ish?
