I've been having a lot of fun over the last few days indulging in role-play on my Miqo'te, though I figured it'd be worthwhile creating a thread in order to scratch a particular itch that is unlikely to be sated easily.
There's no shortage of Miqo'te being role-played on Balmung. There is, however, a shortage of Miqo'te that don't simply act and speak like Hyur. It's rather difficult to explain exactly what I mean by that and it is by no means meant in a overwhelmingly negative manner.
I come from a WoW background where role-play is concerned and I made it a point to go that extra mile to portray my blood elf as something more than a handsome human-with-long-ears. I'm looking to do the same with my Miqo'te, though for the sort of stuff I have in mind it'd be easier to team up with like-minded folk instead of relying solely on random encounters.
My Miqo'te is the grim and serious sort which doesn't really make him all that suitable for hanging out in a tavern and having a friendly chat over a couple of drinks. He's a hunter-gatherer who would prefer to bond with another character (of any race) over the tracking and slaying of a boar out in the wilds.
He's polite, reasonably friendly and reserved - though as he essentially lives on the outskirts of Eorzean society he struggles to adhere to societal norms and can be hilariously blunt and confusing at times!
So if this sort of thing sounds interesting to anyone out there then I'd love to team up and get some long term role-play going with a heavy focus on character development, travelling throughout Eorzea. This would be on foot, ideally - though the use of boats and airships are an option too where land travel would not make sense.
I'm also looking for someone to be a long term antagonist. A Garlean could tie into this rather easily as he has a bone to pick with their kind but I'm open to other types of villains and anti-heroes as well!
At any rate, I hope this thread makes sense - it's currently 4am here but I figured I'd toss it up anyway to see if there's much interest in this sort of thing. I've deliberately left the exact details vague as I prefer to keep an element of intrigue and mystery that is often shattered when each and every last bit of information is revealed about a character in advance.
You're welcome to reply here, contact me over PM or even just toss me a message in-game to discuss matters further!

 I have a couple Seekers who've left their tribes and thus become a little lost on their culture, but they do still retain a lot of tribal traits (speech especially). I also have a Garlean character (granted, he's undercover, so it may take some work to find a feasible reason to pick a bone with him), and perhaps I have a couple other potential antagonists among my characters!
