She's a prodigy when it comes to fighter-ing and reaches level 5 in just 1 year. She goes off to be a thief. She's also a prodigy at thief-ing and reaches level 5 in that class in just 1 more year. She's now 18, one year YOUNGER than the minimum 1st level human thief age according to the DMG, which is 19.Druid also has a minimum starting age of 19.But! The table on p. 12 of the DMG has this line:Bards begin at the age of the class in which they first began.Lousy grammar notwithstanding, what does that even mean?!</blockquote>
