The fact that this is becoming possible both amazes and terrifies me to no end.

This beast comes out when it is 25 degrees below zero

It can rip your head off

It can fly as high as a bird

It can bite your face

Exploring new boundaries has always been a part of fantasy, but when you go far off the charted map, you can't expect the masses to follow you, because their interest lies in more identifiable, recognizable fiction.

 

yeah, that's par for the course. My point was just "yes it can feasibly be written into a well rounded character that is interesting" not "yes it can be made into a character that everyone can/should acknowledge" And based on your post, we both can agree on that.

I don't even know why this is so taboo, tbh, White mages that AREN'T padjal seem more taboo to me. Mind explaining that, anyone?

 

A good part of the community considers being a WHM taboo.

 

Part of it is that we can be WHMs in game, but we can't be Padjal. There's nothing you can do in game to visibly represent the Padjal horns. On top of that they're part of a small, elite cabal personally chosen by a great power in the world. It just makes it difficult to RP with the greater community.

 

Could you write an interesting, well-rounded original character that is a Padjal? Absolutely. But this sort of thing is better suited for fanfiction rather than roleplay.

 

Having said that, you should do whatever you need to do to have fun without being an asshole. I am very sure there's a ton of RPers who don't come to this forum to find approval engaging in RP that everyone here would sneer at. I once had an idea for a "disgraced" Padjal that had lost everything, but there really wasn't anything in the lore to go on with it, so I dropped it after realizing it would be extremely problematic. 

 

If you really want to play a Padjal, play one. Find a group that's ok with it and just RP with them and don't worry about outsiders or what this forum thinks.
