it's a medieval settings, the only limitations for you getting ale is if you have the coin for it

I know the one you're talking about. Can't find the video, but it's one of the ones of the kiwi dude who reads Tumblr posts. Great concept, honestly

"Should jail sentence time be based on race?" will allways be one of my favourite posts ever.

Well this is RPG memes and 100 is when an elf is considered an adult in DnD so

That is how it works (legally and culturally)

Of course it's also a medievalish world and they didn't care that it ruined brain development. I guess you might argue that dwarves and elves would though, particularly since a brain damaged drunken youth is going to be a problem for a lot longer

I do love the "elves are diapers till age 12" joke though..

This is catgirl defence :)

Drinking age varies by country, in Australia it's 18, maybe she just wanted to check how far it was and would have let it slide at a point before 100 depending on the equivalent.

Modern urban grimdark fantasy is a reflection of our modern urban grimdark reality. Writing hopeful fiction in a modern setting requires a much more vivid imagination.

Ravnica setting is what you want. I suggest the "Bylaw and Order" series!

And why would they know 100 = 21 and not stop there?

Same reason the whole world measures battle mats in inches.

Well dwarfs drinking age is 0, so that wouldn't mean a lot.

I don't imagine it's linear. Maturity probably has some connection to biological development.

The meme is claiming that 100 in elven years is the equivalent of 21 in human years.

So the ratio 21:100 becomes 15.33:73 (or something like that. Its 6am here so my maths could be off).

Using the same ratio, 100 human years would be ~476 elf years.

In the US, the age of majority for drinking alcohol is 21, so it likely is.

There are a lot of assumptions here but is 100 the drinking age for elves because that number seemed pulled from someone’s ass.
