Since the OP just wants an honest opinion, might as well drop several pieces.

1) In my strange head cannon, it would make more sense for the parents to be from Grid/Limsa rather than Grid/Coerth. It's not uncommon or unheard of for Miqo'te in Limsa to have inter-species relations. The difficult aspect though you would need to apply to it is genetics. Since her mother was Miqo and her father Hyur, she will be taller, more beefy and be less cat like and with skin tones balancing between both races than the average miqo. Would still have her ear's, tail or anything genetically ancestral.

Grid x Ishgard on the other hand would be weird and touchy. They seem to be the types to be... only interested in those of the same race. They probably (not canon mind you) Have a form of arranged marriages, mostly determined when they are young. Would make an interesting love based history for them to be honest, but since they probably weren't married (or were and I didn't read this thoroughly) Ryoko would probably be a bastard child of sorts since she wasn't a wed-born child. This wont change their parental relationship between father and daughter much, but she wont be recognized as a legitimate child of his by others.

2) They would probably operate something like the KGB or the CIA. Undercover knights and inquisitors of Ishgard who have a skill for subtlety and espionage. I mean, they are pridefull and traditional, like the Gridanians, but riling up the Grand Companys by slaying what they would call herritics in the streets who havent been tried or convicted by the laws of the city state reflects poorly on the Ishgardians and that would also make them borderline or full blown extremists. (*cough* Much like Isis in the middle east. *cough*)

3) Probably not. She may have an ice affinity, but formal training in the Manipulation of one's personal Aether is required.

That said, she could pose a much higher resistance to cold weather/things and ice magic than others.

4) Honestly, it all depends on the look you like ICly, there is no definite outfit one can recommend, but experimentation with outfits is a recommendation I would make so just play around with different apparel and stuff. You might find a set you like.

5) Knight apprentice, retainer of a knight or cleric/inquisitor or an apprentice cleric to an inquisitor.

Generally, if you want to follow a holy doctrine/mandate of hunting witches, you need to be in the Lawful Good spectrum, which is basically Paladin alignment right there.

A clerical apprentice to a Inquisitor means more direct hands on experience, but it also means the PC will develop a Zealot doctrine and will be solidified in the highest Lawful Good sphere of influence (Basically, the become rule-aholic's that don't care for anything save following mandate and helping others so long as it falls into this mandate). (Unless they become evil that is.)

A knight retainer or apprentice however will be more involved with the more dangerous side of being a witch hunter and will usually have to risk their lives attempting to kill witches that are too dangerous to be captured and tried for heresy and witchcraft. They will be the more lenient of two, but will still largely be Lawful good, but they have more flexibility and are capable of bending the rules if it does even more good. They will not be able to break rules however. (unless they turn evil.)



Hope this input help's!     ^_^
