    ...daft question. The answer is likely no. But I'd like to ask what you guys think of it regardless.

    Do you think that when they include and properly introduce Female Hrothgar, given that Misija Votyasch is a Hrothgar name and not a Roegadyn name, they will retcon Misija and her ancestor Queen Gunnhildr into Female Hrothgar models?

    They had no such design in store back when they made them. And we know from the NPCs within Gangos itself that Hyurs and Roegadyn retain their traditional nomenclature. It doesn't make them any less Bozjan. So why would Misija be so jarring and be a clear inconsistent aspect of their story? It shouldn't be much different to program a different model for Misija and the Queen. It's no different than what they do for us; how do you think animations stay the same in cutscenes regardless of whether we're Roegadyn, Au Ra, Lalafell or Viera?

    No offence to Roegadyn in general either. It's just that it's too jarring to have a character with a clearly Hrothgar name, with such an importance to our lore, be portrayed as a Female Roegadyn simply out of what we assume to be a lack of models at the time she was released. Who knows, maybe even you Roegadyn players would enjoy not having yet another display of villainy from your race... Memorable displays of heroism among Roegadyn seems to be limited to a dead character in one patch and Gosetsu.

    I know it's a long shot. But they've gone back and edited old content because fans asked for it. Hence why I ask. To me, it appears rather jarring and I'd hope they changed Bozja's cutscene models to better reflect the race being portrayed. But what do you guys think?
