Hrothgar Anticipation

Already have my headcanon for why my race is gonna be changed in SHB.

During the final battle, I tried to break the game by digging a potion out of my saddlebag, only to accidentally guzzle down a bottle of long-since-spoiled Fantasia. The effects were delayed, and so when I finally finished recovering -- I had a new body.

(Alternatively...my Aether was too much for my body so the First decided to be nice to me and give me a new one).

i cant wait to see all the big Hrothgar at Uldah Quicksands xD.

Me Khimari Ronso.

probably going to try them out, definitely confused after the new image had no claws. hopfully its a toggle thing

I can't wait to change to a hrothgar. Have only used Fantasia a few times, but I think this will be my last. really excited.

I really want to switch, but I feel the main factor will be if my girlfriend actually joins and sticks to the game. Otherwise the whole hassle of tossing out all my female only glamours and items including some I paid for (dunno if I can swap those) and even a name change. Though honestly I may say screw the name change.

Folks in my FC are already making jokes of turning into a Hrothgar just to squat on me. The end times are coming. Would be interesting to see what becomes more popular. Hrothgar or Male Roe! Which huge bara will win? Tune in come 5.0 for the grand battle of muscle.

Hey, at least extremes and new Eden raid should be a lot easier now - with all the stack mechanics we will certainly be able to see the Hrothgar tank! And of course, I'm going to laugh myself silly seeing something as well built as a Hrothgar dancing.

After Ricardo now this Man life is getting better & better ! :cool:

Am smol lizard girl but very excited to be playing big bara lion man! I'm super stoked that they're finally adding a more beastly looking race. Jury's still out on what job they're gonna be.

For me I'm definitely gonna make a Hroth Scholar, a classy sophisticated bad boy who loves men and adores reading. I'm immediantly gonna wanna do NG+ with a Hrothgar as I want to see him in all the old story content.

For me I am going as a GUN Breaker for Glam reasons (Main War) and see if I can make a liono outfit. I am thinking there will be a great Gun blade to use. Also, being a lion and also include finding blue tight spandix in an FF game is not hard to find. I can feel it. Thunder....Thunder....THUNDER CATS!!!!!!!HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am excited as well and personally feel the Hrothgar as an evolution to the now Mi'quote. Also being Tank main aswell, I totally get what you mean. I am so excited to be a giant lion person holding an exploding blade, argument totally invalid XD

My main is a Miqote, that’s not changing any time soon, but I do split my time with my alt who is definitely changing to Hrothgar.
I don’t like having so much on one character, and they’re on different datacenters to play with different friends since the split.

My Miqote main is: DRK, BLM, NIN, AST, RDM, MCH, WHM, PLD, SAM and soon to be Gunbreaker.
My soon to be Hrothgar alt is: WAR, DRG, MNK, BRD, SCH, SMN and soon to be Dancer.
So he’s got the big burly warrior tropes, but he’s also the elegant Scholar, Bard and Dancer.

I'll definitely switch from my fem Miq'ote.. It may take some work to come up with a suitable glamour though, since I only have two glamours saved, (Ironworks and the level 70 NIN set, and I've scrapped all my other gear to recover storage space.

I sincerely hope the wolf face is real and not something lost in translation. But having a wolf face would defeat the purpose of being a lion race which is why I am speculative of these mentions.
