(I think crossbreeding, metissage, are a mistake, FF is not modern times. There's only 40-50 years that we practice metissage deliberately in the world, except incidents. It's a very modern idea that doesn't fit to that world in my opinion.Â
Also, the character creation do not offer the possibility to represent physically that metissage.
Crossbreed between Miqo'te and the other "races"* are especially nearly impossible if we speak about the keepers of the moon, because of the way they live, apart from others except a few in Gridania, but not to the point to have kids with other *species. SPECIES, not races. They are probably non even compatible with their DNA, .. the tail, the ears, the fur, making having kids impossible.
Even between KoS and KoM I don't see metissage happening the way their kind and traditions are described.
How to create a crossbreed between Reo and Lala (who are probably DNA compatible) then?
Why should you limit the metissage?
How are you going to create that character then?
No really, this is, modern, romantic, but lore breaking and RPscientificaly impossible
This is what I think and I am sure of.
So may be you'll change your mind, may be not, but I won't recon crossbreeding in RP or I'll be shocked, and make abstraction of those characters as I'm free of my choices as you are free of yours.
I think you should think more in character before choosing a background
Edit:Â it's like saying you fight with powerful laser swords and travel by space shuttle in FF despite we can't see it
Also remember the Mendel laws, in genetics the male is dominant, but more than that, the grand parents influence the most.
So you can say IC you are crossbreed, but I can think IC you are mythomane or just mad, then that will be RP, but it's better to write in your background:*affirms he-she's child of two different species*)
