If Viera and Hrothgar were to Summon Primals...

What do you all think they would be? :D

Roger Rabbit.

With Hrothgar, we might actually get to see that—there some degree of implication that we'll be fighting a Hrothgar-inspired primal in the Shadowbringers Relic Weapon questline. My bets are on it being Asura due to the mural associated with that questline thus far depicting a multi-armed woman.

As for Viera, in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance they were associated with the totema Exodus—a giant tree man who in turn was based on the villain Exdeath from Final Fantasy 5. Ordinarily I'd say they wouldn't use him as he's associated with the Lucavi/Espers from the Ivalice games, but the Ivalice raids have come and gone and only Mateus and Famfrit stuck around out of the "based on FF1-5 villains" Espers. So Exodus, Chaos, and Zeromus are all technically available. But even if they didn't go with Exodus, given their propensity for following the Green Word and worshiping the wood itself they would probably summon something akin to FFTA's Exodus. That is to say... giant tree man.

I struggle to imagine a universe in which this isn't where they're going with this.

Exodus was associated with Libra, or the Libra stone, which was possessed by Cidolfus Orlandeau. Thundergod Cid in Orbonne Monastery actually transforms into a... what do we call them in this? Demi-Lucavi? based on Exodus's design.

But I otherwise agree that a Viera primal should be Ivalice based.
From the Lucavi that so far haven't made an appearance or been utilised (like Cid's Libra/Exodus) there's Zalera, Chaos, Shemhazai, Adrammelech and Zeromus.
Zeromus could end up being used in an FFIV series, so I think Shemhazai or Adrammelech are probably the best fit for Viera.

Cid and the Totema are similar, yes, but with Halicarnassus existing two times (in Haukke Hard and Deltascape), I see no reason why we shouldn't get Exodus himself.

I suppose it could always be a Primal interpretation of the Libra Lucavi, seeing as Primals are essentially fictional recreations of them.

The ronson's would summon Sin or Anima

The bunnys- idk

Was my first thought, however I was feeling goofy for some reason and then thought Roger Rabbit fits.

For viera I'd say a male viera and for hrothgar a female hrothgar, cause primals is the closest we'll see of them.

The Black Rabbit of Inlé

Lion-O :D

We're fighting Exodus next? That would be awesome!

All I know is that the Roegadyn's primal is this:

Disgusting beast.

(assuming they summoned primals like beast tribes do) It's hard to say because we don't really get a good look at Hroth culture to know what they might summon that would reflect what's important to their culture.

As for Viera, I could see them summoning "the ronkans" back. Maybe in the form of Whyt.

The Viis I can see doing (albeit highly unlikely considering that primals would be unknown in the First), that, the Source Viera, not so much.

No, of course not :D
There isn't a tribe of Viera presiding over Ronkans ruins on the source lol.

I assumed that that was Gunnhildr, seeing as it has ears and would be more plot relevant to the relic quest. >3>

Yes, the mural represents Queen Gunnhildr, but the clear implication is that if the idea of Gunnhildr were manifest as a Primal, it would take the form of Asura. If they didn't mean to imply this, they wouldn't have given her extra arms. These are things they do on purpose to hint toward what's coming, like when someone gave someone else a mirror with a moon design on the back, which was meant to foreshadow a certain primal.
