Too be honest, I just felt like it fit the character. There were two races that fit her background - Elezen (Wildwood, since she hung out in Gridania) and Hyur - Midlander. I didn't like the Elezen animations in Beta, so I race changed her to Hyur.
I don't think Miqote or Roe or Lalafell would have worked with the character at all, and even a Highlander Hyur or Duskwood Elezen felt off.
My Garlean Midlander was easier, just seems to be a lot of those. Rolled it.
There, that simple. Just fit with what I wanted in the character.
For the second character you are really playing a garlean and game mechanics won't let you is that the case?Â
As for the first is it you couldn't justify any other race having roots in Gridania? Â Is the character tied down to centuries of family hertige or just has "roots" there if so such has been the case for Miquote and Lalafell readily.
Perhaps they just wanted to play a Midlander? Â Why do people have to play a race other than the one they are playing? Â What's wrong with just playing whatever the hell you want to play?
