Useful Lore Links Compendium

[Xihsa'li Tayuun]

Here's a collection of good sources for all your lore needs!  Adding more as I find them!  
Feel free to post your own as replies to this topic.

mirkemenagerie update Lore index: A great source for everything!
I pretty much use this site for most things. The person has done a lot of work gathering lore from a manner of different sources.

Lore Finder
A true gem, this web application allows you to search for words and references in in-game quest dialogue for any theme or word you set. Great for finding some of the more obscure lore you might not encounter unless you played every quest and read every description. 

The Raimdelle Codex Alces [Public]
A book on naturalism, Eorzean style. Basically natural research, coded and arranged in lists of data and notes made from an IC perspective. Which means, much of the information is here is not necessarily lore-accurate. Take it all with a grain of salt, and not as 100% fact. It's more meant to be read as something you might find In Character in a library. Not all studies and theories in science are entirely accurate in real life either.

Pretty self-explanatory. Miqo'te names explained.

Miqo'te Mating Strategies
Before you judge a book by its' cover, the poster of this thread actually went into deep detail and debate over miqo'te culture in general, mirroring it to biological mechanisms in animals as well as humans. Half of it is about breeding, but the other half is about things everyone making a miqo'te should be thinking about: in what kind of tribe/clan or ancestry did their character come from and how does it affect them?
