I'm a potential apper who already asked this question on rpanoncomm, and wanted to get a mods opinion on apping a character from a long ways before canon starts.
So, I would like to play a character who is an adult in canon, but play him pre-canon (when he's 12-13). There is a (very short ~2-page) flashback of him at this age, and this flashback is there to show the reader characterization points, how his thought process worked/works, and also show how little he's changed over the 18+ years between the flashback and current canon.
I'd like to play him from this age because there is evidence that show how his characterization has changed over the years with regard to interactions with people and self-control.
I'm wondering if this is even a viable option, since I would want to take him from nearly 18 years pre-canon. The character in question is Stein from Soul Eater, if this helps any.
