These are just my guesses, based on the character's personalities and stories, mostly - less their looks.
Hawke - no more than 24, but at least 19 (it has room to vary between how the player wants to make Hawke). If Leandra was pregnant when she left Kirkwall, then at most 25 instead.
Carver/Bethany - 18, as stated by Leandra (Carver appears to be the elder of the twins, however)
Aveline - 31 - she's an accomplished soldier, and very level-headed. Young enough to pal around with Hawke, but old enough to be justified in some well-deserved scolding for some of Hawke's actions. I feel like she married Wesley young, hence her awkwardness courting Donnic.
Varric - I would say maybe... 29? Dwarves are difficult ("You humans are all racist" appropriate here?), but I wouldn't take Bartrand to be much older than 37... And Varric's seven years his junior, so I would say 29-30 at his youngest.
Merrill - In Origins, I would have said she was 21; older than Tamlen and the Warden, but still young enough to idolize the Keeper like a youth. In DA:II, I would add maybe a year or two, personally seeing her as being 23 - older than your sibling, but much more naive.
Isabela - I can't get 35 out of my head, at least for Act II. Like many others, I do see her as being married "young," at maybe 15 or 16, then her husband dying when she was around 20. Took to the seas for 10 years, at least, and then the extra years just for some leeway - I doubt she went straight from widow to pirate queen. I'd say she was 30 or 31 by the first Act, leaving her at 33/4 by the end of the second Act and 37/8 by the Second Battle of Kirkwall.
Fenris - His sister strikes me as being around 25, and the younger of the two. I wouldn't count on him as being in his twenties. I would speculate around 32 when he is first encountered, leaving him old enough at the finale to really want to live somewhere stable.
Sebastian - We know that he is at least 28 by Act III, making him at least 21 for Act I. However, I'd give him at least seven years from the bow conversation to the Chantry - he was a young man, impulsive and rash, when he entered the Chantry. I'd say that by Act III, he was at least 33-34 (I see him as younger than Anders), and therefore near 26/7 in Act I.
Anders - From Awakening, I would have guessed 27/8. By DA:II, when we meet him, it's still 9.31, the same year that the Blight and Mother (and Architect, if so) were defeated. He hasn't been a Warden for longer than a year, so the Blight probably hasn't aged him much. I'd say, however, that my assessment of him in Awakening was a bit young. I'd put him at around 30-33 in Act I, just old enough to refer to Hawke as little boy/girl even if Hawke is 25. This would put him as being 37-40 by the finale, an age at which he can accept dying for his actions.
And for kicks:
Leandra - She elopes with Malcolm Hawke at least 25 years before a year in to Act I, and was engaged even before then. Hence I would say at least 40, if she eloped at 15 (although I would put her as running away at 23, and see 48 as the youngest she could possibly be). As such, I would say around 48, however, since she does not seem older than 60.
Gamlen - Younger than Leandra, but old enough to have formed an opinion on her romantic choices. I'd say he's around 5-7 years younger than Leandra; around 41-43 according to my personal playthrough, 16-18 when Leandra ran away and 22-24 when his parents die, young enough to be resentful of his wasted time caring for them and to blow away all their money on bad habits.
Charade - She seems old enough to handle herself, but young enough to not do it well. I imagine that Gamlen and Mara married(?) after Leandra left and split after the Amell patriarch and matriarch died. I would say that
Gamlen was maybe 25/6 when she was born, putting her at 15-18 during Act I and 22-25 by her Act III introduction.
Okay, WAY lengthier than I intended, my apologies. Thank you for your time if you read all the way through this.
Edit: Bolded so the names don't drown.:innocent:
Popping in to change things about your list.
Fenris would probably be around 25-26 when you first meet him in Act I. He's old enough to have maturity and practicality, while still young enough to be rebellious against his former master. It would peg him then at 28-29 for Act II, and 31-32 in Act III.
Gamlen says in a dialogue with him (one where you randomly talk to him in Act I-- I believe after you recover the will of Grandfather Amell) that there is a year between him and Leandra (Leandra being the older one). This would peg him at 47 in Act I, 50 in Act II, and 53 in Act III.
