Roegadyn Children?

I asked this in the past but the thread died (I'm assuming due to how unpopular Roegadyn are)
But do you think SE will ever add Roegadyn Children?

Or maybe Roegadyn Children are already around and we haven't noticed?
I saw to Roegadyn families at the gold saucer and their children look like Hyur. Do Roegadyn look like Hyur when they are young?

Realistically, the devs have not made any Roegadyn children yet and so far only miqo'te (female) children is the newest one they developed. So we don't really don't know how roegadyn children look like yet.

Though I suppose when it comes to lore reasons then I suppose there aren't that many Hellsguard kids due to them killing them off to save resources and those that do survive probably stay in their villages. Sea Wolves I'd imagine keep them save and hidden in hamlets far away from Limsa. I could be wrong, but the excuse they used as to why there weren't female roe NPC in 1.0 was due to them taking care of their children in villages.

I guess Roes are just too awesome to waste time with such silly things as childhood and just smash their way into existence fully grown up right out of the life stream

Plot twist: Roegadyn are actually mutant Hyurs that have one hell of a puberty

I'm still of the mind that Roes and Highlanders share a common ancestor.

Yer mother was a Sea Wolf

Well for the Ro parents with human kids, adoption is one thing.

I find it hilarious that the Lalafell "children" in the Ul'dah starting story look almost identical to the adults. Which also begs the question at what point Lalafells "come of age" so to speak.

You have no idea. A lot of weird situations can happen because of this xD

"I swear, that lalafall was an adult! I can prove it... OK... no, I cant T_T
OK... to be honest, I m actually not sure about that right now... o_O
Eh... here! A mustache is a clear indication. Right? Right???"

Once they killed 100 living things they will achieve adulthood, Duh.

Does that mean that when we first start out we're getting to play a child character? Lalafell players win again!

I thought they were exactly the same ._.
What's the difference? With Lalas it bothers me the most that we haven't seen children (that look like children!) yet, because for the very humanoid races, even before they added models, it was pretty clear how a child catgirl would look, or how a young Au Ra will look.
But Lalas and Roes? That's a lot more interesting...

I thought they are grown in a garden. The sultan tree isn't just a recreational area, it's where the sultana grows her successor.

Your ancestors are Sea Wolves. So we wouldn't share anything with the highlanders.

I've always wondered about Roegadyn children as well. Like, the males.....at what point do they get big? And I personally think that the roegadyn children would look a bit like hyur children. The hellsguard nose, I believe is a cultural ash marking and not hereditary. (The shamed Curious Gorge does not bear this mark) So they may or may not have the nose marking. But I'd think a sea wolf child would still be green.

Well there are some types that do grow like that but you'll need tons of blood to successfully grow them.

In Idyllshire there's the Roe and Lala taking a smoke break where the Roe mentions that the Lala is hardly twelve summers old and hardly a grown man.

I'm actually curious about young Au Ra. When does the sexual dimorphism come into play? When do they grow their full horns and tails? I love the idea of baby Au Ra with little horn nubs and stumpy tails.

Until it's proven otherwise, I believe it's safe to go with the human model - that is, until they reach puberty, children of all races are rather similar. It's only during that time of maturation that sexual dimorphism really becomes apparent, so...

In the case of Au'Ra I imagine the differences would become apparent a bit earlier tha the other races due to the massive size difference between genders

Not necessarily. Again, defer to the human model - regardless of how they develop during puberty, boys and girls have rather similar body structures. Yet, men regularly reach over 6' in height, while women can be as short as or shorter than 4'. It varies greatly, but the point is such extremities, while rare, are possible even in humans despite both sexes having similar body structures until puberty.

(And for the love of the Maker, it's Au Ra, not Au'Ra, Au-ra, Aura, etc. Au Ra.)

Damn! Our secret is out! Who told this alley cat?!? Find them and bring me their heads!

Still haven't settled on a name to return to Roedom pride.

Elezan kids are the same as Hyur kids, save their ears, despite the height and muscle mass difference as adults.

So while it's feasable a prepubescent Roegadyn could look just like a prepubescent Hyur, it doesn't explain the wildly different skintones found in Roegadyn bloodlines.

I mean, we haven't even seen a kid model that wasn't a Caucasian skintone, even with the obvious Moon kitten, Kloe.

Unless, we're supposed to assume Moenbryda was a freak of nature that didn't turn green upon maturation and they start out peach toned. O.o

Funnily enough, seems we can also use "Auri" as a descriptive when talking about an Au Ra in passing, as seen from the Wind-up Odin minion:

"Many have pondered why a dark divinity with roots in northern mythology would wield a blade with a decidedly Far Eastern name. A popular theory is that Odin acquired the blade upon slaying an Auri warrior who was the first ever to notch his thereto- fore unsullied plate." So, there's that going on.

"Auri" is the adjectival form of "Au Ra." All of the Au Ra starting gear, for instance, is called "Auri [X]."

I'm gonna claim Galka rules if we don't have any sort of Roe child confirmation by 4.0.

I asked this question to Koji fox for the lore pannel, I really hope he answers it. There is so little we know about Roegadyn I think due to the fact that they are pretty unpopular with players.
