Description
Characters with an undeveloped body shape, typically equivalent to a one year-old or younger, or the equivalent for the character's species. Common attributes are a large, round head; chubby cheeks; big eyes; and short, stubby limbs.
Important Notes:
- When applying age-related tags, you should not use information that is not directly from the image.
- If a character looks like a neonate, but is confirmed to be of-age, apply neonate and adult_(lore). Characters with a neonate body shape can technically be of any age.
- If a character looks like an adult, but is confirmed to be underaged, apply young_(lore).
- Keep in mind that while young characters are often slim and short, some types of adults (e.g. dwarfs, shortstacks, chibis) can be slim and/or short while also displaying more aged qualities.
