I'll use Warren's marriage to Sei as an example. Berrod was at the ceremony, and while he was very happy for them both, he still muttered and wondered why Warren couldn't find himself a nice highlander girl to make some babies and keep the blood thick. He's an Ala Mhigan-blooded Highlander to the core, and while he may not have any active hostilities against the other races, courting them is questionable. He makes an exception for Roegadyn, but only because they most closely match his model of what an individual should be -- traditionally.Â
Long story short, he doesn't think it's strange, he just sorts of laments that people do it and water down 'good' bloodlines.
Hee hee, in all seriousness this is the same attitude Amelia and her brother have about other people. Â I think IC "racism" can be a great avenue of conflict to keep things interesting.
As a personal opinion, I think interracial couples obviously happen, but I think you would still many folkyfolk that have a 1950s(American) mentality of "(S)he'd be better off with their own kind..."
Yknow??
