Breeding vs adoption

[Magic-Mal]

We are talking about lore reasons though. They will often adapt the lore to fit development or business decisions. A lot of lore is created from the writers finding ways to fit gameplay ideas into the existing canon.

If we are honest, it is just impractical to deal with making crossbreed models for every race/age combination. Its far more simple to just give a lore reason to justify it.

Pretty sure crossbreeds can happen as easy as any normal baby happens. I don't recall reading or hearing anywhere that it's difficult for races to crossbreed. Only that for some cultures(like Ishgard) it's looked down upon. There's even a Hyur guy in a SB side quest who outright mentions how he wants to marry a Miqo'te girl and have children with her.

That's why I'mma chalk it down to "It's SE" because it's been proven time and again that "rare" people who were otherwise never seen before, can be just.. made by SE and well they're real and all over the place now. Like Highlander/Roegadyn females, Miqo'te males, female Miqo'te children(males still don't exist yet ), Hyurezans, and the entire Au Ra race that flooded into Eorzea within a patch with no explanation until Stormblood where they also created Au Ra children.

Soooo... I think it's safe to go along with "It's SE"
