I tend to like the magically gifted youths in games or television or books and things. It makes so much sense when you consider a kids ability to learn new languages and things is almost 300 times better when they are young.

It is one of those concepts that is becoming a serious cliche, but its always fun. I mean a kid would have such a clearer mind and enough innocence to master things that a confused and older person wouldnt.

I guess it goes to my thinking about people like Bastian from the Neverending Story, or the little baby-looking guy in Yu-Yu Hakashu, and stuff like that. And I think that it is okay. Your character just shouldnt be so closed minded when considering them.

And it goes against the normal mage thinking of the old sage like character, (Gandalf, Merlin, etc.). If an old confused man can be some master magician, why not a child.

Anyways, just get over it... there will always be things that seem freakish, and you'll do best to just avoid them.
