Seeing as how the Japanese were shaped much as a civilization due to the fact they live on a big island I think it's fitting for Raen to also play into that in some shape or form. I appreciate everyone's opinions given on this manner and will start tweaking together her Family's traits and traditions into a fitting description and format!

I figure it would be something that was trained and honed as well. The muscular tail given not only to genetics but years of swimming, an increased perception of underwater vibration and currents from spending a suitable amount of time to learn the subtle differences and feels. It's something I'm very fascinated with. It seems totally doable to me but since lore is so thin I worry about becoming unrealistic!

I know it's been established that some Xaella tribes have the ability to be aquatic, but I've been thinking about the Raen and if we can say as to whether or not they too could be on some level of having a water affinity just less rough in a sense. Let's say when trying to think the possibility through that when the Raen and Xaella split that both sets of ancestors had a water orientated tribe upon the split. Xaella maintaining their more primal state would stay within the actual boundaries of the water while aquatic Raen would split and live aside the water in peaceful more civilized settlements. Yes the affinity and ability to traverse water could of still been honed over the generations giving them powerful tails to swim with still, but only using the water for fishing and as a possible hunting ground. I know the lore on the Raen is somewhat thin on the aspects of this type of idea, but would it be lorebreaking to assume this a possible theory and scenario for a riverside Raen settlement? With how all final fantasy universes tend to embrace the elements within cultures I can see this being a plausible option for character lore. Honestly though I need opinions on the matter.

Hey everybody! I'm here to introduce myself as I officially attempt to join into the Final Fantasy 14 roleplay community. I am by no means new to role play and have easily been enjoying online adventures for over half my life now. I originally played Final Fantasy 14 in the disaster of what was the first release. I then came back and tried to play when it was released in a realm reborn. Why I didn't continue to play on the first release is kind of a no brainer, but when I came back I never really got into the role play community which is why I think I didn't follow through with the game. Now, I am coming to the game searching for new adventures and new comrades. I will be playing a midlander hyur named Viridian Greene as my main and first character to get a feel of things!
