#[0] #[1] Auron has been through some serious shit tho (including some Spoilerific events), so I can actually somewhat defend that one.

I think someone like Raven from Tales of Vesperia, who's also 35, and straight up the subject of various Old Man jokes, is a more egregious example.

There's also Phoenix Wright, who by the time he's 35 is suffering from some pretty serious back problems, though I dunno if that's an implicit Old Man gag or just a commentary on him having a sedentary lifestyle.
