Child versions of the Races

Just wondering if they're were specific terms for the children of the races...

Like are child Miqo'te's Kittens?

Roegadyn children = cubs?

Elezen children = Cygnets?


I think I saw npcs referring to when they were a child at some point... but my mind is drawing a blank. Any info is appreciated!

for Mjollnir:

Lalafell children = Tadpoles? (couldn't think of anything clever)

Yeah, I noticed you didn't include Lalafell on that list. Haw haw.

disclaimer: all in good fun!:P

Eh? So I'm a Giraffe now? Shouldn't Miqotes when they're young be known as "little puzzies" and hyrus be "little rascals". note: I added "little" cuz they're still puzzies or rascals when they get older! :P

Oh, @OP- Lalas are "hatchlings" when they're kids. or Is this a baby lalafel? Nah it couldn't be! But they sure are small and quick! O_o (maybe alil cute too) T_T Can't get smaller than that.

Try to top that, I'm far from your reach XD

I present you with a freshly laid Lalafell!

Kinda reminded me of the first pictures ever to come out on the FFXIV scene before the launch of 1.0. They will stare into your soul! o__o

Weren't children generically referred to as younglings? That's what I vaguely remember, and it's also in keeping with the George R.R. Martin influence on the vocabulary.

We're now associating our "younglings" to baby animals for the sake of the OP. We still deliberating on what to consider Lalafel children. >>.<<;

(I'll stick to hatchlings) :3

Well, I know there was at least one instance of a lalafell NPC specifically being identified as a child by his nameplate (as part of an Echo-vision during one of the GLA class quests), but physically he didn't seem that different from any other lalafell that were clearly adults.

As for the 'younglings' thing, I remember hearing the term used in the Star Wars films (specifically Episode II), which I think predates Martin's stories. But I could be wrong on that.

"Younglings" is pretty generic for children in fantasy novels. I don't remember where I first read it, but it definitely was before A Game of Thrones was published.
