With height and age being relatively new additions, I’m guessing someone has to put in the effort of sitting down and giving all premade NPCs appropriate numbers.

But until that happens, what about randomizing the variables instead of everyone being 25 years old and 175cm tall? Either way this is needed for randomly generated NPCs.  
Alternatively add the option in the debug menu so we can at least manually edit our followers.

I know it’s possible to edit my PC’s height and age in the save file and maybe I’m mistaken but it doesn’t seem to be the case with followers.
