A very good question. [b]Ideally[/b] I would prefer if the characters be limited to that of a younger age simply because it is slowly becoming a known fact during this time that the mutant gene is brought out though puberty, more or less. Not only this, but if a character were to have had their abilities for a good number of years now, their chances of getting caught and killed or imprisoned are much more likely. This can be side-stepped, however, if you give me a convincing story as to this 'older' character having just come by their powers recently, triggered by something other than just growing up.

Alright I'll need a little time to think but it may be worth the effort. We'll see.
