Â Currently, in my personal opinion and the general idea of Ishgardian RPers from what I've seen is that it's much easier to RP an exile than nobility with the information we have (though the 2.5 lore bomb yo. Â that lore bomb). ÂI do not have my character living in Ishgard currently. I was thinking his father would have helped him run away. My character would be in no means nobility and after he escapes Ishgard it is highly likely they would not want him back. But my character is a strong believer in Halone so I am unsure if herecy is a problem (Beyond abandoning Ishgard there at the end) For the most part I think he was a good ishgardian boy himself, but his father kept him out of drafts with the excuse that he was sickly but he still did other work to help serve Ishgard. Then with Ishgard's lifestyle seemingly getting worse he tried to get his son out of Ishgard so he can live a better life. Does that make sense? So I would imagine it to be fairly difficult to brand my character himself as a heretic while he was in Ishgard, but it may brand his father as a heretic after my character leaves and they won't let my character back in.
To stay as a miqo'te but Ishgardian he/she could be adopted and then family exiled? Â Your character would have ties to the place. Â Father may even have raised the character to revere halone, etc. Â Better to be exiled than be pinned a heretic though for sure. <---quick tl;dr two cents
I read that really only important people live in Ishgard. But from the screenshots it looks like there is some really poor areas. So is it still possible to have lived in Ishgard if my character's father was higher ranked in the military. But he got degraded to the slums that all the unimportant people who serve the important people live?
