[@Asura]It's not required, no.

Also, guys...I'm okay with like ONE character being a young teen, but I don't want to end up with a crew full of them. My character is eighteen, but that doesn't mean she's a babysitter. :P

So yes, ONE character can be like Chopper's age or something, and since Rin was the one who had that idea first, she gets dibs.
