Greetings and Salutations! - hannie3000 - 12-10-2014
Hello all, I've been playing FFXIV for about two months now and I'm getting more and more interested in RPing, since it's something I do very much enjoy. Sadly, I am somewhat shy so I feel mighty intimidated by the Quicksand tavern RP going on, plus I find it a little difficult to approach people.Â
Most of my RP experience comes from 1-on-1 RPs, which, I suppose, makes me a newbie at group RPs.Â
I have four characters on Balmung, but I only really have an active RP going on with one of them.Â
My main is Mikh'a Awandah, a male Keeper of the Moon Miqo'te. He is *cough* very in touch with his sexuality, so to speak, and is the most likely to hook up with a good-looking stranger. I have RP'd with him some, though it has pretty much been ERP only, haha.
My second character is X'vael Tia, a male Seeker of the Sun Miqo'te and the one I currently have an active RP plot going on with.Â
Third is X'zhir Nunh, who is X'vael's younger brother. He is part of the plot, though he is more of a side-character. He is also a very disturbed person. (Sadly, I do not have a screenshot of him)
Lastly, there's Ayden Rowantree, a male (Midlander) Hyur and he is based on one of my existing OCs. In that universe, Ayden is a half-elf. Ideally, he'd be an Elezen/Hyur halfbreed in this one, but I am not 100% if that is actually a thing. Would love to hear input on that!Â
Ayden also happens to be the character I am most interested in RPing with at the moment. I just love him to bits and I want others to like him, too!Â
Most of my RP experience comes from RPing over IMs or on forums/PMs. My MMO RP experience is (sadly) limited to Guild Wars 2 and a tiny bit of WoW.Â
Anyways, I apologise if this post comes out a bit chaotic. I'm not the greatest at these sorts of introductions. If you would like to know more about me or my characters, please ask and I'll do my best to give you the information you need. I figured I'd keep it short here because who wants to read a wall of text as a forum introduction post, right? ...Right?

I don't think this is a thing, no. I'm not entirely sure, but I think that last time I checked, although the races can interbreed, they come out with only the traits of or the other, or something odd like that.
I can't remember where I read / heard this information. Maybe someone else could come up with something more specific.

The devs have confirmed that interspecies breeding is a thing. Since we don't see any characters in the game with mixed traits, though, to my knowledge it's just an assumption from the playerbase that they take the traits of one race.

Thanks for the welcome, Oli!Â
And Thanks for the info, both of you. Since Ay's character model is a Midlander Hyur, I suppose he takes after his father, then. Hehe.
