I've shifted Fenix's birthdate to what the manual itself suggests, as the ages given on the Brood War site simply can't work.

Fenix is 397 years of age as of 2499, which would suggest his birthdate is 2102. However, the BW heroes roster seen http://www.blizzard.com/us/broodwar/heroes/ here] has him gained two years by the start of the Brood War. However, while Kerrigan has gained one year, Zeratul has gained none. As far as I can tell, this simply can't work.

I don't think that this is a retcon. Fenix mentions in Mission 3 of Episode VI that he's 368 years older than Raynor. This matches the original ratio of ages (397-29=368), so Fenix's age hasn't been shot up for the sake of it. Zeratul's profile seems to be out of place, as he's named both Praetor and Prelate, not to mention the apparant aging dillemma.

It seems best just to ignore it. The profiles were probably poorly thought out and in Shadow Hunters, Zamara mentions how Episode IV essentially started four years before the events of DTS. Even if Episode IV started in December of 2500, DTS could occur at any point in 2505 and thus make her dating in error. Shift BW to 2501 however and "four years" becomes far more reasonable.--Hawki 23:18, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
