Category A: You, OOCLY
1. Are there any any races you particularly love the opposite (or same) gender of? The models, the history, the lore, anything.Â
I am a shallow person, and as a shallow person, I like all the pretty models (Miqo'te, Midlander Hyur, Elezen). Lalafell are adorable, but too young-looking. Highlanders and Roegadyn are too manly.
OK but seriously, looks aside, I don't actually have a particular preference. I like the lore as a whole.
2. How do you view interracial couples in -game-? Specifically, let's not get into a debate about whether or not it's 'gross' to you as a person or if there are too many people doing it.
The lore obviously supports interracial boinking, at least as far as prostitution is concerned, so I don't see why not. Some couples may be... difficult... mostly due to body differences (I'm looking specifically at Lalafells and... anyone else), but seriously - every humanoid race can communicate, which by default means they can bond, which by default also means they can bond romantically. Physical attraction would factor in, so interracial couples may be less common, but they certainly seem possible to me.
3. Do your OOC feelings towards a particular race make you more open or affect what your character is looking for when they're either flirting around, pursuing romance, or just, in general, acting differently towards those individuals.
Nope. I may have created my character, but they are a separate entity from me. Sure, there are things I would be uncomfortable playing due to OOC reasons, and some traits I wouldn't ever want a character of mine to have (I'm not a fan of the sadist evil for the sake of evil types, for instance), but nothing related to any of the races.
Category B: Your character
1. Does your character seek friends or partners based predominantly on race?
I have several working concepts, but my current main definitely does not. She's a tribeless Miqo'te, so she could never afford to be particularly choosy re: who to interact with or what race they are.
2. How does your character view interracial pairings and are their feelings different from your own?
She is tribeless, as far as she is aware, because her parents broke a tribal rule (she was sired by a Tia) and were cast out, so she has certain... reservations about couples which may be considered taboo. I'm not sure whether or not interracial couples would be taboo in every single case, or at all, but she would be wary of anything that is outside of the conventional, since she saw how it affected her parents and, of course, how it personally affected her as their child.
Worth noting she does not believe she herself should be in a relationship, interracial or no.
