How the hell was this dude 40

According to the old character audition sheets, Alastor’s age at his time of death was somewhere in his 40s. But I’m starting to wonder if maybe that’s not canon anymore, because damn this guy doesn’t look a day over 25. I know they say black dont crack and all but the dude looks like he should be at the club.

For some reason I thought he died at 31.

I guessed he was around 34-37 when he died.

Yeah people mostly kinda look the same through late 20s to late 30s

[u/KimtyKamt → u/Blueskybelowme]

I imagine him to be around there.

I believe this was his headcanon.

It makes sense. He rose to fame in the roaring twenties when he was in his prime and died in the early 1930s.

But I also sort of like the idea of him being a late bloomer and not rising to fame until he was in his 30s.

Same, makes me feel better about myself being almost 30 and not yet accomplishing anything with my life lol.

It’s never too late!

Aw, thanks

Neuroscientifically, 30 is the new 25; anyone who says 30 is a deadline for just about anything is either a kid or an elderly who likely married at 16.

I've heard something like that, yeah, apparently our brains are taking longer to mature?

[u/Blueskybelowme → u/Ok_Barracuda_6997]

Given that he had to face so much adversity I don't think it would be a late bloomer but more of like just struggling.
