Just thought of something. Both here and in discussions about Cinder Fall, the characters "looking too young" has been brought up as a reason against certain theories. However, in this conversation, it's also mentioned that Headmaster Ozpin is "decades older" than anyone else, and it's strongly implied that he predates the war that led to the current colour naming conventions. Yet, he doesn't look old, nor does he show much sign of physical frailty, even though he is, by all accounts, an elderly man. So, that seems to suggest that there at least exists some means of prolonging life and maintaining youthfulness. Can we really rule out the possibility that some other characters besides Ozpin have used this? Technically, both Raven and Cinder could be contemporaries of Summer Rose, who happened to find this "Fountain of Youth", whatever it actually is.
