** Considering her parents met in the 14th century (It's on the lipstick tube) and her mother was executed soon after she was born, Bayonetta is closer to 650 and spent 500 of that in suspended animation. Point still stands for Jeanne, who was not in stasis and looks 30 at the oldest; and Balder, who actually is a thousand or so and appears to be a very fabulous 40. |

* Alucard from [[Castlevania]] looks like a teenager or young adult in every game he appears. But he's been around from 1476 (Castlevania 3) to 2036 ([[Castlevania: Chronicles of Sorrow|Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow]]) |

* Due to the Triforce of Power's influence, Ganondorf |
** Due to the Triforce of Power's influence, Ganondorf lives through several incarnations of Links and Zeldas—several hundred years, at the very least, and probably much longer—but he usually looks like a normal-ish 40-year-old human. Of course, it helps that he has been brought back from the dead several times. |

** ''Ocarina of Time'' vaguely implies that Ganondorf's people, the Gerudo, may age slower than Hylians in general. The two witches, Koume and Kotake, do look like decrepit, old women, but the player probably wouldn't have guessed they were 400 years old. The rest of the Gerudo are all very beautiful women who look no older than twenties or early thirties at best, but it seems dubious to assume all of them are really that young. |

** [[Fish People|Zora]] are a very long-lived race of people; in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom]]'', Yona (Prince Sideon's fiancee) is considered very young because her age is "barely" over two digits (meaning slightly more than 100 years old). |

* Flemeth in ''[[Dragon Age]]'' looks like she's about 70, which is even partially true, but she really is several centuries old. But she's cheating. |

** {{spoiler|At the end of her youth, she abducts herself a suitable man to have a daughter which she then raises to be a witch like her to be her apprentice. When she's nearing her death, she simply steals her daughters body and is once again in her late 20s. She has pulled this trick many times in the past, but also has other means to reincarnate herself if she is slain in battle.}} |
