*eyes list* Check, not anymore, check, barely check, nope.

I think kids under twelve are hardest of that list, really. I'm hard-pressed to get the right age, and not play too young or too old. That's my only big difficulty playing teenagers, too -- getting the age progression right.

Personally, though, hardest is 30-something. It's like . . . well, I'm still 10+ years from that point, so I don't have anything personal to draw on. And while I find it fairly easy to extrapolate older characters, probably because I hang out with my parents and parents' friends a lot, it's really hard for me to extrapolate that middle range.

Of course, part of that may also be that my two 30-somethings both have fairly limited canons, so I don't really have a characterization to work off of except the stuff I make up.
