When can we make lalaqotes?

[Reinha]

Hybrid races? Yes please. I'd want to try Roelf, an elf with some strength, height and hardiness.

[SomeRandomHuman]

I think they were considering that body style for miqo'te males if the concept art is an indicator:

I still wish this is what it actually was for male miqo'te and not the beefy large cats we have now.

[Lukha]

Lalafells are already a stretch and they're rather careful not to sexualize them to much

...Have you never spoken to a single Lalafell NPC or something? So, so many of them are sexualized somehow.

Best examples off the top of my head are the male Lala in Drybone having a sexy dream about Raubahn, and the one in Costa trying to charm a Miqo'te into bed by telling her how he's got 55 years of experience with women...

Outside Elezen and Hyurs all other races are not compatible, even if they try nothing happens.

Source? I'm not at home to look it up, but I'm pretty sure we've been told precisely the opposite of that in the lore forum? I might be misremembering, but I could swear the official line was that crossbreads were perfectly possible, but rare.

Eorzea probably does have decently advanced birth control, anyway; with three kinds of magic-based healers running around, there's gotta be a spell for that, if not several.

Atm, the whole of FFXIV... There are no other hybrids in existence or mention as far as i know of. Proof otherwise welcome.

I read it from an old post but turn out I was wrong: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...l=1#post490835

But that's old (1.0 lore), so perhaps was change, I don't know. I will keep looking and edit this post anyway.

[Vanitas]

That's an absolutely horrifying idea.

[Kacho_Nacho]

that pic edit is great. i'd take Lalau ra tho.

Thanks Karathix! Hmmm, a lalau ra. Now, that's an interesting idea. Certainly wouldn't be a common hybrid but love conquers all. Feeling a bit under the weather, but I can give it try later. Would you like to see a male or female lalau ra a and what color scales would you like them to have?

I'd like to know this as well. Given the race poll they gave out before 2.0 came out listed hybrid races as one of the options, it seems to me this hasn't been explicitly stated one way or the other in lore.

Their lack of presence in game is the same reason we never saw a half Elezen till Hilda or a Mi'qitten till the one in Mor'dona. It's not important enough until the need arises to show them. Until they are ready, the model isn't in game so there is nothing to sprinkle them around with.



As for people worrying about adding childlike races to the game. Please, stop projecting. ERPer's exist and will always exist and nothing you, me, or anyone does is going to stop them from their ERPing. They are a very small fraction of the community and as such design decisions should not be made around them.

Look I'll be frank. Being 100% unrepentantly judgemental here, ERPer's are fricking weird, their ERP is full of cringe, and I wouldn't mind at all if they all suddenly vanished. However, they are not hard to ignore/block and their actions don't actually hurt anyone. So why bend over backwards to mildly inconvenience them?

And then you found yourself on the creepy side of balmung...

Uh.....Hilda is a hyur/elezen hybrid.

That aside, interspecies relationships are HEAVILY looked down upon in Eorzea.
