I can't find the post unfortunately, but it was said that mixed races do exist and that we may see some in the future.

Someone made a joke during NA fanfest about two races having sex and they said it's a possibility. If you pay attention to the ears of the woman who accompanies the temple knight in the story you should also be noticing she's a hyur/elezen hybrid.

...is that your final answer?

A-certain-hair-stylist-hailing-from-a-certain-snowy-mountain-region-and-carrying-noble-ish-blood-who-has-a-brother-looking-for-him-in-a-certain-moogle-delivery-quest-is-not-a-wildwood-elezen...

I'd also point out that what creates "race" IRL (geographical location) is very different between living in the mountains, even pre-calamity versus living in sunny woods. I won't go into time because the real life equivalent process takes waaaaaaay longer than this game's timeline seems to accommodate. Not to mention the noble houses would lead to a form of selective breeding separating them genetically from outsiders. (Ishgardian Elezen would probably have certain genetic defects or vulnerability to conditions/diseases that Wildwood and Duskwights would not.) You can bring up the past lore if you'd like but I just don't think the writers have yet accounted for the reality that under the rules used to establish differences in the other groups the criteria are being met here for a meaningful difference, and for the people who care about stats it just doesn't fit as is. (Yes I know it's a statistical triviality gameplay wise.)

Wasn't she that other race that used a elezen skeleton and didn't have elezen ears?

While I get the idea about being vague, could you elaborate a bit. I don't know anything about another race, specifically one involving "eyes"

Also for anyone interested, while individual characters might be hard to discern, there js a mixed race family, in the Gold Saucer. Near the enterence to the Triple Triad area is a Roegadyn man and a "hyuran" boy. Based on their dialogue they are father and son, and there is a mother and daughter too; if they are in the saucer somewhere I don't know, but it is nice to actually see a confirmed mixed family.

I'm sure if you try to think of another race whose bodies look similar enough to the Elezen and may have some extra eyes (or just one), you'll figure it out.
