Raging Ox should put on some clothes, he'll get a chill

My first recruit is the roe I never knew I wanted ^_^

I kept laughing when I saw this guy... I call it cyber-bully <3 (but I love it)
eye color, lip color, hair style color and hightlight except the name XD ( & nose shape, pupil size)

and I'm on scholar a lot...
(but hey, my name fit Roe lore too...)

Sorry, I saw the flyer, and I thought it's for a beach party...

I wish I got joke characters too..instead my characters have a running joke of dyeing their hair green before they apply.
My entire team has exclusively green hair x.X
I really can't stand some of them, but I don't want to drop any either because "The Green Hair Squad" is totally going to be a thing in the future..



When I finally got a cute Miqo'te instead of ugly Roegadyn/most horrible Au Ra face/onion head Lala, I rejoiced....until I saw her hair color.



WHY.

[Vejjiegirl]

ugly Roegadyn

wow...ok...

[Atoli]

wow...ok...

Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I can show you a close-up of his face and I think a lot of people wouldn't exactly consider him attractive..
His head looks like one of those plants from Aurum Vale..if only his head stuck out from a Morbol rug, I wouldn't even notice the difference

You need to sacrifice more Lalas to RNGod

Same here. I literally had 7 recruits in a row with green hair until I finally got someone without it.

I notice I have everyone in your screenshots except for the Au Ra too. In fact, I haven't run into a single Au Ra yet and I feel like I need one.

[Elleia]

I swear someone knows how much I dislike male Au Ras, because that's all I've gotten so far aside from the default three. Also I only ever seem to attract recruits while filling out my crafting/gathering challenge logs, interestingly enough.

[Atoli]

Okay, this is getting ridiculous now...

After finishing the entire log except for PvP entries, I finally got another recruit..which, of course, also had green hair:

On a different note: I just realized that as the members level up, they get higher level gear.
What happens to the joke recruits? Do they lose their event gear?

I don't have any, but I'm pretty sure they keep it. I've noticed that every race/gender combination has one special character wearing unique clothing. So there are 12 special characters.
