    Like I said in my earlier post, I'd add Roe to that. There's a fair amount of lore stating at least Hyur-Roe pairings can successfully breed (the Highlander insult had to start somewhere...and it is a possibility that Highlanders DO have Hellsguard blood in them from some Midlander-Hellsguard breeding thousands of years ago), and there are at least two Roe-Hyur pairs in-game...and neither are really shamed for being interracial, so there has to be some sort of precedent regarding this pairing.
    One's in Aleport (considering all the Roe and Hyur in Limsa, it makes sense they wouldn't be shamed, much like Hyur-Elezen in Gridania now. And I'm willing to bet there are Hyur-Elezen hybrids in the Shroud, they're just not story-important so we don't know about them), the other's in the Rising Stones post 3.2. Funnily enough, I think both Hyur are Midlanders, but the Roe are of different clans


    However, Roe and Elezen may or may not be able to breed successfully if Hyur and Roe can; normally, the two races don't live anywhere near each other, so it would really only be adventurers making up pairs of them (which doesn't make for a good sample size, if they even live long enough to start families)
