How old do you imagine Rosmerta to be? I'm just asking out of 
curiosity, because I thought about it myself. If she ever went to 
Hogwarts, she has to be older then the Marauders, but if she never went 
there she can be any age we like :-). I'm talking about her real age 
here, not about how old she looks.

I guess you could replace present day Rickman by Rickman from 25 years 
ago, then he would be closer to Snape's actual age. I believe Bart's 
rules allow this kind of change :-). You did it with Julie Cristie 
already!
