So if to breed between two hyur you need to roll a seventy five or lower on two d10's, then you now need to roll a 50 or lower in order to sucessfully breed between a Hyur and Miqo'te/Elezen.except exceedingly rare would be a lot lower than a 50% chance for a mixed offspring.
you would probably be looking at the single digits, as even a 25% chance would be too high.
I don't think they are as rare as people put them off to be. Cultural reasons make them quite rare. But this is PHYSICAL reasons which Square spoke nothing of. So I am making my own assumptions to add to the reasoning why they are rare. But again, I don't believe they are single digit rare.
Lets assume only 1/200 of a pure blood race ever becomes interested in mating another race. Then that still makes them quite the minority. 1/200 is probably more NPC's then you may even be able to find in a major city. But the NPCs we see in Eorzea do not represent its total population. So therefore even if it is only as rare as 1/200, if there is a million+ People living on Eorzea. Then while rare. they are not extremely rare. And they don't need such a steep physical rareness to make then nearly impossible to be made. They are not albino or anything.
