Uberbat wrote: Torial / Asgore: In perpetutia mid forties. If chara and Asriel are near or are teenage then Torial at least needs to have been a teenager to have had Asriel. Maybe she was a young mother too as Toriel loves children and I can see her eager for kids. Asgore in my head I like to think is more immature and younger then her but he's got an older vibe with the tea and gardening and mid life crisis. I don't know. I'll say there is maybe a couple of years difference between them. But can't say for certain who is the older.

Sans: He has some sort of scientific background prior to the main events. And he must have been a sentry for a couple of Years after that to have established a routine for it. Concievably he could have been an assistant scientist rather then fully trained but would still need to be 16+ for it. Add  at least two years of actual sentry duty and he could be about 20. But his personality always came across to me as those sort of laid back rut years of the early 20's. But that could just be down to him reliving the resets. Also the fact he uses the term old lady for Torial. A young person's way of thinking anyone over 30 is "old" So I'll average it out at around 22/24.

Papyrus: Definitely younger then Sans. He's got that bluster of a young man looking forward in life. The confidence of someone who hasn't faced real adversity (Or maybe San's molly coddled him a bit too much) He's also got the energy of a younger person. Then there is the fact he uses words like Wowie. BUT he is also not a child otherwise I wonder how he got his driving licence... Yet he's not quite an adult as he is still in the "kid faze" with his car bed and action figures and cool dude top and baseball cap. Papyrus doesn't look like a little kid either yet is gangly as in not quote fitting his body yet. So he's not likely younger  than 16 but not older then 20. So I would guess 17/18. Possibly in the wider range of 15-20 (can you get a provisional driving licence at 15?) but I'll play safe and go with the middle.

Undyne: She's the leader of the Royal guard and whilst she could be super young in the role she would probably have had to go through training and lower ranks first. Plus there is the fact she was the Captain of the Royal guard before she started training Papyrus. She's certainly got the talent and the commitment to rise through the ranks quickly. But I wouldn't say she was less then 19  as she had been firmly established as Captain by then. Would take a year or so to make a name for herself and then it's likely she has been training Papyrus for maybe a year, maybe slightly less. But she's still also young enough to banter with Papyrus as friends.aand I'm going to assume the 95 and 91 of her and Papyrus's online names is indicitive of the age difference which would make her 4 years older then pap. Which would make her 22/23 which seems about right when considering the other things I've added.

Alphys: My very first impression was Alphys was a male in his mid thirties.lol  Alphys has more than a whiff of an otaku about her. Anime fans of her calibre tend to be in their early twenties. There is also the fact she is not confident in her abilities as a scientist, asgore be unlikely to hire a very very young individual for head scientist so she's not a child or even comes across as a teenager. I also get this gut feeling she's older then Undyne. Not by much but she's been around a while. Long enough to create Metaton's body and have a lab of her own. But she doesn't feel over 30. Bratty and catty, who seem like 20ish refer to her as a big sister. So I would say Alphys is somewhere between 24-27

Frisk: To be honest when I first played I thought Frisk was about 12. but playing through the game despite Frisk not giving many clues there are a few. As others have said they "flirt" Frisk is fairly independent to walk through the underground without being perturbed and then there is Toriel calling them child and San's calling them Kid. Frisk can also fight and knows the basics of cooking. There isn't actually a lot to go on but I would say from what little there is Frisk is older then the initial 12 I thought but younger then 16. And maybe Frisk is just short for their age. Anyway I'm thinking 14/15 for Frisk.

Chara: I see Chara as female. So I'll use she pronouns. But that's just fiurst impressions. Chara like Frisk is/was young in their early teens but I think Chara is slightly older than Frisk because what child thinks about doing what Chara did. So I would say Chara is 16/17

Asriel: I see Asriel as younger than both Frisk and Chara But not so young as to not become bitter and resentful. So as I see Frisk as 14/15 I would say 13 for Asriel. Possibly younger.

Metaton: Built perhaps two years ago. Inhabited by someone much much older. I head canon ghosts as the oldest monsters but stuck at a point like Toriel and asgore. Eternally youthful. So frankly whilst Metaton's body is only about two years old he is probably hundreds if not thousands.

Grillby: 30's

Bratty and Catty: 19-23

Muffet: 18-30 (Hard to judge her)

Flowey: Same as Asriel plus a year so 14

Monster Kid: 8-11

FLOWEY IS ASRIEL just so you know MK is 10 Toby Fox has comfired few ages for each charater
