Questions of Race Anyone?

[Lunavati]

I IS a female! And I think we are not that rare in mmo's. I listened to a great ffxiv podcast today talking about rolling cross-gender. I liked what one of the female co-hosts said: that if you see a female in a game being all girly and asking for help, gear etc. = that is a guy. Not sure I agree. I think being a jerk is not gender specific. It happens both ways. I don't care if a guy rolls a girl or a transvestite or a three-sexed alien: as long as it is lore-appropriate for the game they are playing and they play with some honor and intelligence.

 

As long as we get NO sparkly-skinned vampires.... :frustrated:

I agree on the Vampires part. I still don't understand how that even became popular.

[Shamadconde]

The Garmlich Effect. That's how.

[Trizzip]

Most guys that I knew who rolled mithras in XI did it mainly for the DEX. I quite lierally knew more guy mithras than female mithras. So, regardless of what is true or not true, if you are a cat girl, I'm automatically assuming you are a guy unless you show me proof.

It's so horrible that shouldn't even come into effect.

*ahem* ... Mammary glands or exit post-haste?

[Trizzip]

Or we could play a little game of 'pafu pafu'

[Lunavati]

And here is another reason that has little to do with questions of vampires or um glands of any type that I plan to play a Miqo'te. I just rescued the kittens below. Some idiot threw away a momma and six TINY kittens, all with blue eyes like their Siamese momma this afternoon on a road near my house. I hate people sometimes. My best friend is trying to hold them on her lap for the picture. Sorry for the quality: iphone near dark = not great pic.

 

Power to the Felines. Death to Sparkly Vampires of the world.

Not that anyone will probably take interest in my input, but I feel obliged to say something!

Figuring out why I immediately chose Miqo'te takes some thought. I want to make it sound like some totally epic reason, rather than me just being like, "Oooh~ *Sparkly eyes* Kitty! -Childish point-" But that pretty much was it for me. D: How they looked. Being cats. That sort of thing! It's not very interesting, I just found no interest in the other races. I've never played an MMORPG that let me play as a catgirl (I didn't participate in FFXI. x:), so the change seemed fun! Plus their bodies look amazing, in my opinion! I'm a little discouraged that there's so many, but maybe that'll eventually balance itself out!

As for my choice between Seeker & Keeper, well~ I initially wanted to roll a Keeper, as I found their physical description super attractive! Rounded pupils, bigger ears, pronounced canines, etc! I watched both character creation videoes though, & liked what I saw better for the Seekers. :cat:

After talking with a few roleplayers and planning out how relationships would develop between our characters, I thought a Seeker suited my character rather nicely! So that's what I've stuck with -- but who knows, I may spontaneously change my mind at gamelaunch! What a twist~

Anywho, I noticed a post earlier than mine & would like to comment on it! I don't care if people think I'm a guy or a girl, as long as it doesn't affect how their characters interact with mine. However, I am a girl, & there is proof on the 'post your RL pic' thread!

Long answer is long! & Not too interesting! Thanks for taking a peek anywho, if you did!

[UnbeknownstGhost]

I two things to say.

 

1. Oh my god.

2. So many cat people

Hey KittyWizard,

 

Loved your answer! And was much what I went with too--I mean come on a TAIL! I love the way the Miqo'te look. And will go check out the RL pic thread too.

Awe, thank-you! I was actually really inspired by why you chose the Miqo'te also! I was like, "Darn, my answer isn't as cool.. -Weeps-"

But yeah! Tail.. & EARS! I mean, I have ears, but. ... You know what, nevermind. TAIL!â¥

& Ahah, you don't have to!^^

[UnbeknownstGhost]

Yes. At times Naggy.

Some things can't be helped. D:

My homework right now is so boring. I've already done it all ;'(

[Trizzip]

Me thinks this thread is officially de-railed.
