(Spoilers abound) Which City and/or Grand Company makes the most sense for a Xaela?
I know that technically *any* starting city or grand company can work for any race. However, we've generally seen that certain locations are more likely to harbor certain races than others.
My knowledge of the Au Ra characters in the Lore is admittedly somewhat limited; I've not really played since right around the time Heavensward was released. I've read up on all the Xaela tribe names, and I know you get to interact with the Xaela in some capacity during Stormblood, but not much in the way of details.
I recently got my dad to try the game, and so far he's been loving it, so I *REALLY* want to come to a conclusion on this.
I would say that, right now, I'm sort of caught between "a Xaela Gladiator starting in Ul'dah who joins the Immortal Flames", or "a Xaela Marauder who starts in Limsa Lominsa who joined the Maelstrom". However, I'm totally open to other suggestions; those just seem the more "fitting" options for the race so far.
Would you guys mind offering your input, and if you don't mind, also your reasoning for said choice?
