Why you decided on your race (lore perspective)

[Bluevann]

I wanted something different from FFXI (Never liked the similarities between the two games, as I play both, I would've preferred them separated, much like each other Final Fantasy game between one another). It came down to Highlanders, Roegadyn females or male Miqo'te.

The final choice went on male Miqo'te merely because it was the only race to have a tail. I hope for a new tailed race though, getting pretty tired of receiving cat jokes all the time.

Well I really like Camelot and the summon from ff7 knights of round. My fav is Gawain the knight that can't be beat in the sun so after seeing seeker of the sun I chose it.After reading all the culture i like them all but i still like the seeker of the sun.

I rolled a Lalafell because, they're cute. I made her female for the same reason (Can't go wrong with pigtails and bows). Other reasons are to set up a David-Goliath vibe, So I picked the shortest size option.

I picked the Dunesfolk because of their pupiless eyes and the gemstones they put on their foreheads.

I chose Thaumaturge because I spent a lot of time playing Terraria with magic weapons. I also wanted to make a charater that would use the forces of Light and Dakrness (So Black Mage, Paladin and White Mage my priorities when it comes to getting jobs).

I will admit that the name I chose for her does fudge the naming conventions a bit (I also considered "Kokoro Koro" but that seemed too otakuish and I felt that someone else would have already taken the name anyway (And yes I am aware that there's another toon on another server with the same name as my character)).

I went Miqo'te, because of the character -that i have become really fond of- from the book I'm writing, She is from a race of beings that are part human part animal. each person is of a different animal even if they are related by blood, the animal you represent is determined by the day, month, and moon phase. Anyways Eirika is part fox, and since the Miqo'te is the closest to that I chose it
