So, after some calculations and research (if only I was this dedicated to schoolwork) I have the ages of several characters. First, a few side notes regarding several (but not all) significant events:
9:30 Dragon -
- the Fifth Blight begins
- after the Battle of Ostagar, the Hawke family flees the Blight in Ferelden and seeks out refuge in Kirkwall
9:31 Dragon -
- the Fifth Blight comes to an end
- six months after the end of the Fifth Blight the events of Awakening begin
- somewhere in the short time after the Architect and Mother have been dealt with, the Grey Warden Anders merges with Justice and unintentionally kills his fellow Wardens while under Vengeance's control. He flees to Kirkwall, hiding in Darktown and healing those in need, and is soon after approached by Hawke, who is looking for maps of the Deep Roads
- the events of Witch Hunt occur, likely after those of Awakening
9:34 Dragon -
- Divine Beatrix III succumbs to old age
- Revered Mother Dorothea is named Divine Justinia V
9:37 Dragon -
- the mage, Anders, destroys the Kirkwall Chantry, prompting a now insane Knight-Commander Meredith to call for the Circle to be Annulled, and eventually her death at the hands of Hawke, the Champion of Kirkwall
- the events of Kirkwall ultimately end up leading to the Mage-Templar War
9:40 Dragon -
- Cassandra arrives in Kirkwall and interrogates Varric
- the Chantry separates itself from the Circle (if Wynne and Shale survived the events of Origins, this is largely, albeit indirectly, because of them)
- Wynne dies to save Evangeline. If Wynne did not survive the events of Origins, then Evangeline presumably dies
- Lord Seeker Lambert disappears and is presumed dead. He had been murdered by Cole, the Ghost of the White Spire
- Lucius is made the new Lord Seeker in Lambert's place
- after several years of unrest, Grand Duke Gaspard and his forces finally go against Empress Celene
- in the process of the battle between Gaspard and Celene the elves of Halamshiral are slaughtered, the demon Imshael freed, and the Eluvians activated by Briala
9:41 Dragon -
- the events of Inquisitions occur (this is proven when Dorian states that 9:42 is a year into the future, however, this also seems to contradict a statement made by Cassandra which can be accessed in certain dialogue in which she states that Lord Seeker Lambert disappeared two years prior)
So, it's been eleven years since the events of Origins first began (i.e. the Warden's conscription and the Battle of Ostagar)/ten years since the events of Origins ended (i.e. the Archdemon was killed and the Fifth Blight ended), and we know the approximate ages of several characters, including:
- Alistair (born 9:10 Dragon): beginning of Origins - 20; DA2 - 24; DA:I - 31
- Loghain Mac Tir: I recall him, Marric, and Rowan all being 16 at the beginning of Dragon Age: The Stolen Throne. He'd be about 50 at the beginning of Origins, so, if he is still alive, he's probably around 61
- Anora Mac Tir: beginning of Origins - at least in her late twenties.
The City Elf is engaged, so I would guess that s/he was around 16, minimum, and likely no older than Alistair (20). That gives about another 26 years to Leliana, putting her somewhere in her 30s in Origins. Add another ten years, she's probably in her 40s. - Sera: There is dialogue in which Sera states that when she was a child she had a small, painted, music box. This likey refers to the quest in Origins "Friends of Red Jenny" in which you take Irving's small, painted box and drop it off. This was ten years ago, and Sera claims to have been a child. She is likely in her late teens or, more likely, her early twenties.
- Mihris: likely around 20 years-old
This long and unnecessary explanation that took me about an hour or so to write was partially for the fun of knowing the characters ages. Sort of like how I freak out in joy whenever I see a character from the book appearing in the games (you should have seen me when I met Mihris 
). It was also to raise a question which I could've just outright asked, but why do that when I can make things more complicated for myself?
Anyway, I guess I just wanna ask you how old you guys think your characters are, either your Wardens or your Inquisitors. I have one Warden I feel like is in her late twenties or early thirties, an Inquisitor in her forties, etc.
So, how old are your characters?
