And you still find yourself doing emotes that require visual cues despite the fact that she won't react to any of them -- nodding, smiling, and all that.

Blindness is probably far more easy to pull off than, say, being deaf/mute. In a social game like this, without everyone around you being able to read your emoted sign language or not having something like telepathy to make it nothing more than a senseless character aspect, you'd probably be left out of quite a few things.

Tia Rie. I've RP'd with her before. The way her character gets around blindness is by relying on this fact: When one of the five senses is removed, the body cranks up the other four to compensate. She has much more sensitive smell and hearing.
