Catgirls!
That's simply it, for me. I love cute, and always go for good looking characters, as I have to like them, to play them. I tend to become attached to them too. (I'll not be switching race permanently at any time, Rae is Rae). Miqo'te fit perfectly, so that's what I made. I looked at all the other races and aside the Lalafell cuteness, nothing struck me as "me" to play. Everything else is after that. (on the occasions I play a male, they tend to be all muscles and kindness. I'm terribad in gender equality I know).
RP wise though, Rae isn't particularly catgirly (Nya, growls, purrs, showing off as much skin as possible (usually...) etc.), she's just a random orphan with a solid goal and a flat dedication to get there (For now... If Thief/Dancer happens, well this is gonna go down the crapper faster than a 10 tonze bomb
 Thankfully I left an escape route for it)
I do love to be unique, but if certain aspects happen to be common as mud, well so be it. I won't play something I don't love to look at just to be special. And to be honest, being 1 of a million means that you're more "ordinary" in the end. Miqo'te are taking over Eorzea like the Grey Squirrel took over England. I'm just one more damn grey squirrel, why look at me twice? ;P
I'm surprised there aren't more purry, punny Miqo though. There's only one memorable (to my poor memory) one in-game too (A guard near the Fallgourd Float / Ixali "camp").
Man I hate writing things like this, my posts always seem bodged.
