I'm sort of.. against roleplaying the races as anything else than what they actually are visually. I know that the padjal are a thing but they are such a rare thing and they are -only- from our knowledge found in Gridania. You would need to only roleplay in gridania and never upset that balance. Given how suspicious of outsiders gridanians are that would make it doubly difficult.
