These questions seem really out of place for Eorzea though. I'm just saying!
^ Yeah, seriously.
My character is an Ala Mhigan refugee soldier of fortune. I don't think he's looking for make-up that fits his complexion. And skin color really plays no part in Eorzean social politics to begin with. (You could make an argument for Duskwights being stereotyped negatively, I guess, but other than that it doesn't come up too often in actual NPC lore. Sometimes someone will complain about someone of another race, but we see more races being cool with others than not.)Â
But asking someone in my character's shoes, or most other character's shoes for that matter, if they were made fun of for how they dressed growing up, if they went on a family vacation, or if they got time off for religious holidays is a little goofy.
Some of this should be rephrased, and some of it completely re-written for an Eorzean survey. I love a good character survey, but this one needs a lot of work. Plus it opens a whole new can of worms of people talking about/getting offended by RL perspectives on privilege. I play FFXIV and RP to avoid discussions like these.
