I like the idea of doing patrols and like likes. Interacting with other RPers, having a system set up where people can come report crimes, work with criminal FCs to make events or stuff like that.
Might just be me, but I'd like something like that.
On top of that what kinda race/character restrictions would there be? Obviously it'd probably be Samurai only but would you allow outsiders to join, be trained and work with them? I dunno if you'd have to open it up to more races just for the sake of inclusion in the RP community or not.
Again, I like this idea and would probably jump at the opportunity to do it. What do you guys think?
The Far East seems to be composed of the usual races. Hyur (midlander) and Raen is a given, a few lalafells (with eastern names) and a lot of roegadyn (also with eastern names) especially can be seen ingame.
I have yet to see miqo'te (maybe there are some!), but the simple fact that Fernehalves hinted at them being there too, I think race isn't really a problem judging by what I see right now.
Of course, you can never know when a contradictory lore snippet can come and tell you "actually, those samurai of Hingashi police are all midlanders" or whatever. It's sure that the game seems to mostly portray midlanders so far.
In any case, good luck if you try that road for roleplay. Playing the upper caste having the right of life and death (like the Edo era Samurai), also in a role of city police, is probably tricky.
Where are the Lalafells that you saw? I've only seen one Lalafell NPC in Kugane. Kikimo, which is a name that falls in line with Dunesfolk naming conventions, which, as best as I can tell, is what she is. Her employment with the East Aldenard Trading Company also points to her foreign status.
