I play 2 characters. Â Anais is a non-traditional Wildwood Elezen (she's not welcome in Gridania, she's an ex-pirate and current anti-hero type character).
C'rhisi, my miqo'te, is a traditional tribal character. Â She was raised by a tribe in a place where they -maybe- had contact with the outside world once a year or so. Â She's out adventuring as part of a coming of age rite. Â She is young, naive, and kind. Â She's also a fierce hunter that doesn't have a problem with seeing blood. Â She has an extremely developed sense of honor.
I chose miqo'te because I wanted to blend human and animalistic social traits- ears and tail, fangs and claws combined with the intelligence and structure of humanity. Â I wrote up the Coeurl Tribe wiki entry using a combination of inspirations from both human tribes as well as social animals (lions, wolves, wild dogs, zebras, wildebeast, etc).
I enjoy playing 'fish out of water' types and I love playing an 'overused' race in a way that is different enough to be fresh and unique. Â Rhisi is a young, sheltered woman who is being forced to broaden her horizons and her mind. Â She could be any race, technically, but she is miqo'te because only the miqo'te lore suited the story I wanted to tell.
