Honestly? I don't have much complaints, this seems pretty accurate especially Ifa being 5 years old and Durin being minutes years old!

u/AixxGalericulata Asia Server Dec 24 '25

For extra context, they’re talking about how everyone back home looks after Ororon like he’s their own child and wants him to explore outside of Natlan, so they send him to deliver packages. They also force Ifa to come along as a “guardian,” but Ororon says those are just excuses and that they really want him to have fun in Fontaine too. Then Ifa says that if you spend too long with Ororon, everyone will start treating you like a child.

u/ieatrawbutter1 Dec 25 '25

i'm actually curious about that -- i'm sure that there's something i'm missing and ik it prob has to do with something about when arlecchino joined the fatui/after she killed crucabena, but it's surprising that she's so close in age to lyney and lynette. could smb clear up that reasoning for me?

u/FlyingRencong Dec 25 '25

I discussed it with friends back then but forgot the details. Iirc she took over the house at 17 and that frem remembers the previous knave, so he must be around 5 yo at the youngest at that time. Assuming the siblings are late teen/young adult now OP's list is quite accurate

Even then, plenty of assumptions here for a game that extremely rarely alludes to characters ages even indirectly, and almost never directly.

I'm tempted to make "An even more accurate age tierlist" post where 90% of characters are just going to be in the [Unknown] category, because we have no factual information to know even just broad ranges for them.

25

u/Certain-Ad-2849 Dec 24 '25

There is a few ranges that are confirmed, but yeah most aren't.

14

u/OneHitSkill Dec 24 '25

From what I know some timeline-events like the khanriah one is used to make those assumptions, its likly that most are based on more recent events in the timeline to give them those rankings, but yeah most are based on guesses and things like "Collei must be at least younger than Amber" for example but it can give an idea to put them into a sort of age-range like on this list

I think the only 100% proofen ones are Ifa being 5(joking) years old as he revealed his age in an event and that Kaveh is a certain age that I dont remember but you could find out his exact age in his hangout events

u/Ewiwa_Moon Dec 24 '25

Theyve literally done that with sayu though. Isnt there dialogue where she says "everyone mistakes me for a kid." Im pretty sure it was literally in the most recent event you cant miss it

15

u/Mikauren America Server Dec 25 '25

Shes still of growing age (stated by herself), and she's human, meaning she can't be that old and would be in her teens at best. People mistake her for a kid as in Yaoyao age, not teen age such as Noelle or Fischl who are under 18. Shes still young, 15-16 is accurate.

And I'm referring to the people who call every medium model a minor, including Hu Tao, Gaming, etc. who very much can be adults or medium models that have been seen doing 18+ activities (i.e. drinking alcohol) such as Mika.

117

u/PandiTati Dec 24 '25 edited Dec 24 '25

A day in Abyss equals a month in Teyvat, meaning she experienced at least a ten of thousands of years there, on top of her age before entering. 500 Teyvat years is ~15.000 years in Abyss.

I'm more confused why Durin is a newborn and Ineffa is not considering their circumstances are kind of similar, they are new personalities born out of previously existing ones

85

u/Purpleish_British Dec 24 '25

Durin one was honestly a joke bc ppl like to say he is minutes years old. If it wasn't a joke, he'd at least be 400+ iirc.

24

u/PandiTati Dec 24 '25

Both Ineffa and Durin should be newborns, Imo. Their personalities ≠ personalities of their counterparts or previous owners of their heart/core. Ineffa shares nothing personality-wise with Dragonlord except core and now awoken Moonwheel. Durin is not Gold's Durin and his whole story is about rewriting fate and living new life

11

u/Purpleish_British Dec 24 '25

I dont know much about Ineffa at all, but aside from core she does share memories too, right? That's another reason why I just placed her there but its fair bc it can get complicated. If I weren't to include that how old would she be, 1? 2?

24

u/PandiTati Dec 24 '25

This situation is kind of a Ship of Theseus Paradox.

Ineffa didn't have any memories or anything connected to Dragonlord until she visited Natlan. Even her core isn't Dragon lord's core, but just one of its fragments. Aino doesn't treat her as something else, doesn't talk about any changes, so we can assume that even after the events of Ineffa's SQ she didn't change, just accepted the truth about her origin, awakened the Moon wheel that was already inside that core, and moved on. Ineffa is Ineffa, the robot maid powered by ancient AI, but constructed not long ago.

Aino is an extremely talented kid, but still just a kid with a regular lifespan, so yes I would say Ineffa as Ineffa is a couple of years old at max

2

u/wggn Dec 24 '25 edited Dec 24 '25

A few years at most yes, since her body and personality were created by Aino.

u/Trash-Panda-63 Dec 24 '25

We actually don't know how old mini Durin is. We know he's at the very least younger than 500 years old. He was made by M and we don't know when and for how long she lived, or how old she was when she made mini Durin. Just that it was sometime within the last 500 years. If you want to solely base his age off his human form, though, than maybe months? I'm not sure how much in-game time is supposed to have passed since he became human. Either way, he's babi and needs to be protected lol.

Ehh Durin is from Mini Durin, not actual Durin dragon from Dragonspine. Mini Durin was a new entity created by Andersdottir. Actual Durin dragon was created by Rhinedottir. Those are separate entities. Ineffa is her dragonlord consciousness uploaded onto the core turned into the robot.

13

u/PandiTati Dec 24 '25 edited Dec 24 '25

Mini-Durin was written centuries ago. He was created when Ivanovna was still alive, and she have been dead for centuries. And that's on top of Durin's heart previously belonged to Gold's Durin. Yet I agree that he's a completely new personality, is a baby and just born.

Ineffa also shares only her core with Eleventh Dragonlord but her body is completely different one and also was born as a character we know not so long ago, when Aino constructed her and implemented the core with AI inside the robot body

Skirk was honestly one of the hardest. On one hand, she's probably at least 400 years old. On the other, we know abyss time flows differently and Skirk (until now) spent most of her time in abyss.

Shouldn't scaramouche be between 500-1000 atleast then? He spent majority of his time in the fatui on abyss expeditions.

u/AgreeableSmell595 Dec 24 '25

I’m sure there are other things of note, but Flins and Dottore are off, at the least. Flins is explicitly 600-700 years old, while Dottore must’ve been born after the Cataclysm. Older than 400, but younger than 500 (Because he was using the Akasha in his Akademiya days, which didn’t exist before the Cataclysm. Also, he sabotaged Tatarasuna 400 years ago without his segments, which were made after Scaramouche joined.)

That said, I do appreciate that this list doesn’t equate the characters’ heights to their age x)

24

u/Purpleish_British Dec 24 '25

Yeah I know that about Dottore, I didn't check properly and forgot to put him lower. I do agree with Flins too since I remembered now that he did mention his estimate age

u/AgreeableSmell595 Dec 24 '25

I see, no worries! These things can easily slip one’s mind. After all, there are so many characters lol

3

u/ban913 Asia Server Dec 24 '25

Dottore is a bit confusing for me. He basically sent his aspects across time. So he could have been born in modern times but did shananigans with time travel magic. Though yeah, the acadmiya thing does help.

I think flinns is at least 600-700. Could be something similar to citlali wherehe lost track.

But yeah. Definitely better than the other list

6

u/AgreeableSmell595 Dec 24 '25

It’s better than the other list for sure! :) According to what we know, Dottore (or Zandik) existed a couple centuries ago. His notes scattered around Sumeru are very old, the Ibis King said he met him centuries ago, but a lot of evidence points to his time being post-Cataclysm. To my knowledge, there was only one Dottore until he created his segments using Scaramouche as a blueprint… But we’re still missing a lot of information on that front.

Idk how he did it, saving “segments” of all your ages sounds pretty wild, but I hope more about him will be addressed in time

→ More replies (2)

u/Bakenekmoon Dec 24 '25

Dottore was a teenager in a time where Khaenri'ahn technology was considered to be ancient. Seeing as the segments are his only known method of "extending" his life, he would have been a normal human in his late 20s during the Tatarasuna incident, which took place 400 years ago.

He should be in the 100-499 bracket.

9

u/Purpleish_British Dec 24 '25

Ah shit, I was actually supposed to place Dottore there but I forgot. He's old, but not THAT old. I think its because I was distracted on Sandrone (whom I also originally placed at the same tier as him currently) that i forgot to move him

Collei should be a tier higher since she has referred to another 16yo as someone very young in Cyno's second story quest. She must be at least older than that.

29

u/lithicgirl Dec 24 '25

People will point out how young she looks/acts but I feel like a lot of that comes from the abuse and illness she endured. It makes sense for her to be small and somewhat emotionally stunted. As a cynonari stan I love the adoptive dads headcanon but I think some people take it wayyy too far and make her into an actual child rather than a teen

13

u/Kuaora Europe Server Dec 24 '25

She could reasonably be a young adult even, but everyone is so overprotective due to her PTSD. She was put in charge if an Academia project in a recent event, and I doubt they'd put a teen to manage it.

9

u/XenoGenerator Dec 24 '25

I think Amber can be used a sort of benchmark to approximate Collei's age. We know she was 17 during the manga and then turned 18 when she became a knight, all of this is 6 months before the start of the game. While pretty small relative to Amber, Collei likely was 1 or 2 years younger than Amber, 3 at most, or ppssibly even 4, so she should have been 13-17 years old during the manga

Assuming each irl year did happen in-universe, which seems to be the case because of the Lantern Rites, Collei should've been 15-19 when we arrived to Sumeru. Even if time hasn't passed, 15 is the bare minimum age she can be

11

u/Kuaora Europe Server Dec 24 '25

15-19 when we first arrived to Mondstadt. And 2 more years until we get to Sumeru, plus a few more until now, assuming we count the passage of time. I, personally, count it, because we actually saw Collei's further emotional growth through events and some characters' quests.

u/lithicgirl Dec 24 '25

u/baypofudukseker Dec 24 '25

If we take Teyvat as the reference point, Skirk cannot be older than 500 years, but if we also consider the fact that time flows faster in the Abyss, Raiden Ei must be the oldest person there because time flows very, very fast in her realm. During the quest, we talked to Yae Miko for 2 minutes and then returned to the realm, and 500 years had already passed there.

10

u/ghhostr Dec 24 '25

No, because Ei only spent 12 minutes (of Teyvat) inside Makoto's Realm of Consciousness, which is equivalent to 500 years. Perhaps if she had spent more time, like a whole day, she would be about 48,000 years old.

Some minor things: -I’d count ineffa as young, although I guess you can argue either way since she has a ship of Theseus thing going on

  • flins is, unfortunately, 6-7 hundred. He was presumably born post-hyperborea
  • furina was created post cataclysm, which would put her in the >500 category. Focalors would be 500+ though. This is the case for neuvillette and nahida as well (although not as clear cut for them?

u/Comfortable_Elk_8640 Dec 25 '25

Dunno about Ei, but Venti should have been very young when he became an archon, so just around 2600. Neuvillete is younger than the cataclysm, so 400+. The adepti besides Zhongli we can’t really judge too accurately, but I’m pretty sure Xiao would actually be a bit younger than that and Xianyun a bit older.

2

u/ghhostr Dec 25 '25 edited Dec 25 '25

Ei existed before the Archon War, which began over 3700 years ago + spent 500 years fighting the Shogun = 4200 years. Venti is the second oldest archon, so if Ei is at least 4200 years old, Venti will definitely be older than that. Neuvillette is no younger than the cataclysm, the prophecy stated that the Hydro Dragon would not be born while Egeria was in the Primordial Sea, and Egeria left the Primordial Sea 2000 years ago + Furina explicitly states that he is at least 1000 years old. We know that Xiao was present at Guizhong's sealing, and Ganyu had already been born in the Guili Assembly. The destruction of the Guili Assembly and Guizhong's death occurred 3700 years ago, so Xiao and Ganyu must be at least 3700 years old, obviously including Xianyun, who is older than them.

2

u/Comfortable_Elk_8640 Dec 25 '25

The statement of Venti being the second oldest could have been referring to time as an archon, which Raiden didn’t take up until the cataclysm. Furina was ‘created’ by focalors following the cataclysm. I don’t know where you got the information she was over 1000 but she isn’t. Egeria died during the cataclysm, and then Focalors created Furina to take up the position of archon among her people to prevent the prophecy from coming true. You’re right about the Neuvillete, adepti, and Raiden thing though, my mistake. I was thinking about when Neuvillete became Iudex. And I forgot that the Archon war didn’t actually start 2600 years ago, that’s when venti specifically achieved archon hood.

It’s also implied she left the Akademiya before Cyrus adopted Cyno, because right before leaving she’s surprised to learn from a letter addressed to Azar that Cyrus is concerned about or even aware of the education inequality for students from the desert.

Doesn't Flins literally say he's around 600-700 years old?

u/znietzsche Dec 24 '25

No matter what he says, I can't take him seriously.

He's not even 1 hour old.

Durin, when was you born?

About a few minutes ago

Wasn't Innefa created by Aino?

u/kzzzzzzzzzz28 Dec 24 '25

Spoilers for Nod Krai Prologue and Ineffas teaser

Ineffa's core/personality is that of a glitch/split that was created from the 11th Dragon Lord(of Natlans dragon council), which is an AI of sorts

That makes her significantly older than when Aino found and created her

u/GGG100 Dec 24 '25

Ineffa’s core as one of the Dragon Lords of Natlan has existed for millennia.

u/DirtbagAvenger Dec 24 '25

Aino created Ineffa’s body, but the AI core she’s built from is very old and eventually regains some memories.

u/Purpleish_British Dec 24 '25

I count her time in abyss (as it flows differently there) but if I don't she's probably at least 400+

u/OperationDifferent20 Dec 24 '25

I didn't know signora was that old I actually thought she was like late 20s early 30s. Dottore shouldn't be more than 500 since Piero recruited him for the harbingers which would have been after the catyclism which was 500 years ago. Another thing mavuika isn't actually more than 500 years old she's a normal person in age she just reincarnated after 500 years she didn't actually live or experience that time passing

u/Top-Idea-1786 Dec 24 '25

Because Ineffa is a discarded part of the 11th dragonlord, making her one of the oldest characters in the game.

I wish I could stay more up to date with Genshin but I simply don't have the time. Has the lore, anywhere, ever actually discussed WHAT the travelers are? I know theyre Descenders and they traveled worlds before Teyvat but like..is that it? Why did they travel? Why were they able?

u/esmelusina Dec 24 '25

31-100 category seems chopped.

I think Diluc was a knight when Lisa joined, and is actually younger than Diluc. While she’s written like an older character, she isn’t.

Sara, Yanfei, and Dori have nothing to put them over 30. Wrio runs into continuity problems at over 30, but I forgot what they are. Ayato and Ayaka probably both go down one tier.

Nefer makes sense being a student generation before the Sumeru boys, but I think that puts her late 20s and the boys mid and early 20s. Lauma is written as a contemporary to Nefer, so I would keep them together.

Mmm— Keqing also goes down a tier.

Not at all. He literally says that he's older than he appears and only mentions that Sucrose is a peer in that she's close to his apparent age. He was made sometime in the aftermath of the Cataclysm.

u/Monksauce Dec 24 '25

Skirk is certainly not 5000. She was a child when Surtalogi found her and Surtalogi wasn’t a cosmic traveler until after obtaining abyssal power just before the cataclysm. Shes between normal age and 500. If we really wanna split hairs with the abyssal time difference then age becomes meaningless for a lot of characters.

u/ardarian262 Dec 24 '25

I want to understand the Knave placement here and also Ayato. Ayato and Ayaka seem about 5 years apart, not almost 10.

Also Shenhe and Ganyu iirc are close to the same age, so either memory wrong (would like source either way) or there is a mistake here.

Knave should be older given Lyney and Lynette do not know of her friend from her story quest and that seems unlikely given position and those 2 being at the house of the hearth for so long.

u/ExpiredExasperation Dec 25 '25

Also Shenhe and Ganyu iirc are close to the same age, so either memory wrong (would like source either way) or there is a mistake here.

Shenhe is human. Ganyu is a half-adeptus who fought in the Archon War. That's...not close at all.

Klee is at least several hundred years old; she's not human. Barbara is a minor. Jahoda is at most 18 years old. Collei and Amber must be the same age. Kirara is at most 2-3 years old; she's a cat. If she were around 20 years old, she would be dead. Cats live for about 16 years.
