It's 2017, when can we get a prominent LGBT character in the storyline?

All I will say regarding these matters in the context of FF XIV is "Salamander Oil".

I think the character you're talking about is not from Hydaelyn, neither his familly.

This thread reminds me of a recent Xelphatol run I had. The tank went to explain the mechanics of the second boss, and he said he... I said it's a she actually. Cue the "OMG its 2017 did I just assume its gender" I laughed so hard.

The only gender assumption that makes me cringe is for Cloud of Darkness, this is probably one of the only char that is made to be genderless. Guess why they speak only using "we".
