"Give us lore and story!"

SE: "ok!"

"WHY ONLY LORE? WHY NO GAMEPLAY INFORMATION?!"

Honestly.

It's clear that they want us to experience it first hand mainly. Also, Yoshida said that the GC page will be expand with content as it's released.

i am not sure if the companies are added tonight, i think only some introduction quests will be added?

I really doubt they would put a female roegadyn in game so early.

actually even the smaller ears were noticable through the hair. And most sea wolf clan females are into sailing in politics... perfect for an the LL grand company. Plus it really looks nothing like a dusksomthing elf person.

Plus the name follows Roegadyn Naming Conventions.

Considering Assaults and Salaheem's sentinels were completely fun and awesome I hope this is the case. Improved and more dynamic Assault type missions?! You have my monthly fee whenever you want it SE

Very Roegadyn sideburns too. I am excite.

Believe it would be this patch. Unless they are inconsistent. It wasn't listed in the Patch 1.17 Outline (04/12/2011), but that also specifically said it was a "brief outline".

I believe it is this update today. Otherwise they wouldn't bother with this teaser.

She is BEAUTIFUL. I hope she is a roeg. D: Omg

I think good ol Merl is a Roegadyn female as well. As well as Kan, leader from the Twin Adders, is a female of the summoner kind of breed like from the Gridania storyline. (We have only seen males of these so far and they only seem to be young boys.) Then there is Raubahn from the Immortal Flames that looks like a Highlander, in my own opinion.

I hope you automatically belong to the company in the city you started in. If not 90% of the players are going to end up with the Uldah company >.>
