#The fandom Wolfwood debate is still so funny to me

[revenantghost]

Hey! I'm just getting into trigun and I don't know much about the story/characters so far, but how old is wolfwood actually? I'm seeing people say different things, like he's in his early teens, late teens and then even like mid twenties (which I think he'd probably be considering he smokes, drinks and has a blowup doll?) but I've seen people call vashwood weird and proship??? I like the art I've seen so far but knowing ppl think he's an aged up kid who's still a kid makes me uncomfy :{

Heya! First and most importantly, I'm not about harassment and censorship in fandom spaces, ship and let ship, just tag it correctly to keep actual, real people safe. I absolutely understand wanting to know the facts for your own comfort though, this sorta thing's a squick for me too! As for canonical ages, obviously '98 is an adult with no modifications (I don't remember his age off the top of my head), Trimax is in his early/mid-twenties (Nightow's timeline is... something else, so there's a range in fanon), and we've got no idea what Tristamp's actual age is yet! I'd guess something similar to Trimax, considering the amount of inspiration from the source material, but a lot of theories are he's slightly younger, though not by much. I feel like there are some good meta attempting to dissect the timeline, but I can't remember any off the top of my head. Folks can feel free to add links if you remember any!
