Re: Rip/Criticize my character: Angela Copperfield.

Angela was born from the most stupid character concept that I have been sent for a descriptive application (which was required to contain at least family ties, past experiences and future goals) to join a realistic campaign: "A sorceress". That was all the character some anonymous player wanted to play. That was all she had for her background: She was "a sorceress". And she intended to play a character who was really able to throw magic spells. That person publicly and exultingly discussed that she should be able to play without a backstory... because potato. Of course, this player wasn´t allowed to join. But the inherent fun of such a simple concept was funfully discussed for days, and from there started a discussion about what kind of "realistic magic" could a peak human be able to perform. Quote:

I must be missing something. Are you claiming that 15 is the average age of any woman bearing any child throughout the course of history? or is some other sort of average? Is there some illuminatii scheme I missed?

That doesn't mean they make good fiction.

Re: Rip/Criticize my character: Angela Copperfield.
Most women through history lacked the nutrition to have children at age 15, and those that had proper nutrition tended to suffer higher levels of maternal mortality because their bodies were still developing be for age 15. Age 9 is just not possible for the vast majority of girls throughout history.
