We have confirmation of Jing Yuan's age range during Quintent era?

According to this post, patch 2.5 confirmed Jing Yuan was <100 years old during Quintet era. tanithryudo, can you confirm or deny this claim? Is this a thing? Am I going to have to re-think my fanfic?!

Also, if you equate his "teen" height as close to the current height that Dan Heng (who uses the male teen model in game) has right now, it's not that short/shota.

It looks around early teen-ish based on head-to-shoulder ratio (closer to Yanqing model than Dan Heng model). Given he was in the same role as Yanqing at the time, I suspect the intention was to have them at similar ages, then and now.

But even if I headcanon him to Dan Heng's comparative age, it still means for a good 50+ years of Quintet, Jing Yuan was basically a kid. So unless Dan Feng also was of a similar situation...the canon seems to be catering to the "Jing Yuan was the baby of the group" theory that fans unanimously agreed on somehow...

Well, Dan Feng is shorter than the adult male model (compare to Yingxing/Blade). He's only a little taller than Dan Heng, and doesn't have an exact game model that he corresponds to.

Oh god... they're a tragic teen drama.

😆 I think you're onto something. This is my headcanon now.
