One of my goals when I started FFXIV was to change that. I wanted the 'challenge' of playing average joe race, and somehow make it interesting. Only, none of the midlander looks appealed to me at ALL.
I next looked at making a miqo'te, a seeker. But the lore for them absolutely didn't interest me in the slightest. Sooo.... since I wanted the challenge of playing human but didn't like their look, but like the look of seeker but yawned about their lore... why not make a hyur kitty? I knew going in it was an oft used trope, but so what? RP is about having fun.
And for the record, I have another seeker who is Roegadyn adopted :p
In another post, I said already said that I purely understand people making their choices for aesthetic-only reasons. I do that myself. I pay SE good money, so I can run around in permanent cat ears if I want to. That's why I disagree with anyone who ever asks "if you're going to RP a human, why don't you make one?".Â
Obviously RPing is about having fun. But there is a particular reason why I said what I did in my first post, and I addressed that in my second post.
And your character would be the first Roe-adopted Miqo I've (personally) heard of, then. XD
