You also need to distinguish race from nationality. Â There are two types of Garleans.
Roen is a natural born Ala'Mhigan, adopted by Garleans if I'm not mistaken.
Coatleque is a full-blooded highlander, but was "nationally" Garlean simply because she was born just after the territory changed hands.
Franz, on the other hand, is a full-blooded Garlean with the 3rd eye and everything.
The thing is, the character would essentially need to be like Roen before even becoming an initiate. Inconspicuous in terms of where she came from. True origins. No one knows her heritage. Proven herself. I don't see how anyone would let her in close at all if she was known to be Garlean like Franz.
I think Franz is a bit of a special case here. I mean, he very blatantly doesn't deny being Garlean if someone calls him out on it for the most part. (Granted, most of the people who did he didn't perceive as threats.) Aside fro mthat, I do pretty much have an Easter basket of hidden eggs to pull out on occasion should he need either a quick escape, have something go wrong, or explain away some off quirk.Â
THe importatn distinction would be Crofte's point, and how the character identifies herself in the setting. There are important distinctions of identity for being "Garlean", ethnically, nationally, and legally.
