Gonna be brutally honest here, when people have issues of this nature, they tend to just shake their head and walk away before you even get a chance to explain. Like the Ishgardian Lalafell Dragoon thing? Most people are not going to ask how in the world you accomplished that, they're going to go "Uh-huh, and I'm the Miqo'te King of Ishgard. Pull the other one, it's got bells on."
But hell, those probably aren't people you care to play with anyway, and that just means you've got to find folk who are amicable to your whole concept and all that. Finding the right FC will help a lot with that. I'm sure you'll find one in due time.
Absolutely! You'll find one. Hardcore RPers have a tendency to be okay with retcons when they find out something about their character isn't possible. There are a lot of HC RPers in this game (many of them post in these forums) which equates to rigid attention to lore.
But you don't have to be a HC RPer. It's a lot of work. I personally enjoy the lore-Nazi attitudes because I share the same values and they help me as a relatively new player.
There are numerous guilds out there, and some will be more than happy to have you and your interesting Lalafell because they are genuinely interested in helping your character blossom. Just make sure you take those first steps to apply to a few places and see what happens.
ALSO! You might try speaking with the players who do the IC recruiting and see if there is a way to arrange ICly for your Lala to be sought out and invited rather than him applying. Perhaps someone has a super friendly Miqote who would befriend him on the street and say,
"Hey, I'm a recruiter for a Free Company. You should join."
