This is in no way meant to be negative, but unfortunately Yoshi P has shot down the idea of introducing Viera as a playable race in XIV. If memory serves me, he stated that because we already have Miqo'te and, because Viera would not be very different than Miqo'te, he is not interested in adding Viera to the game. I find that somewhat disappointing. Not that I care to play as a Viera, but simply because there is such a huge demand for Viera to be a playable race.
