sea wolves

hells guard

So CoD is a self proclaimed "Ruler" of the Void, while this is probably her belief, it at least show how strong she thinks she is compared to the Kings and Queens. Afterall, she is the Cloud of Darkness made manifest.

Thank you so much! I'll get the limsa lominsa lore when I get the book.

Interesting hellsguard information there...so like the lalafels we're some of the best mages in eorzea...
Firewalking? Is that how they also get the nose marking? Until we get official word I will declare that's how they get the nose marking. I'm guessing evolution kept the marking there even when they moved out of Abalathia.

Besides that a lot of it was stuff that we already know


But for seawolf they went into a lot of detail like how they grow really tall for male and female (sorry au ra if you want a tall female fantasia to roegadyn already).
They mention roegadyn hair is hard but that's probably only for males.

From what I gathered, For most of the races, one of the clans came about from Darwinian evolution, adapting to their environment to become a different subspecies of their respective race

For the Lalafell, its the Dunesfolk, that much is obvious. Their mutation involve more cglossy eyes, and elimination of green hair as a gene (maybe). Of couse if certain Fishing logs are to belives then Lalafell as a whole might be synthetic chimeric beings akin to the Ixal. (thought probably much more accidental)

For the Elezen its the Duskwrights. Also obvious from what we learned of them so far. Interestingly both the Dusnesfolk and the Duskwights appeared after the War of the Magi. Their mutation involve a much darker skin and more silver hair

If we work under the eldence that Elezens are the only native species in Eorzea, (which has evedence aganst them from Allag via their citizens and possibler accedental creation of the Lalafell) then we cna assume that Hellguard mutated fromt eh Sea Wolves, which allowed them to adapt to Albathia.

With that said the Au Ra and Miquo'te seem to be far more ambiguous, especially since both of them have Solar and Lunar themes with their clans, thus I think its possible that they evolves simultaneously from common ancestors that are likely extinct (Unlike the former three races where the the original clan exists simultaneously with their later cousins). I also don;t know which of the Hyur clans came first

Has anybody posted what the lore book had on Warriors and their gear yet? Also wondering if GC leaders and have been posted yet.

[Morningstar1337]

I would be down because a number of my private theories got proven right (all Dunesfolk are Mhachi! Nym was originally majority-Plainsfolk and some of them eventually came back to Limsa!) and attentive reading more or less stops exactly short of spelling out the origins of the Au Ra.

Thanks, but in Hindsight I think is should leave it to someone else

I linked a scan of the WoD lore on the last page. the tl'dr is

• Only Braveura is mentioned in Arbert's profile (He took the weapon upon pledging to become a Warrior of Darkness), also he had to slighter the other Warriors of Light form the First. (this implies that Lamimi, Naillbert, Blaenherz and J'rhoomale are not ex-Warriors of Light, or it could be more literal and he just killed the axmen). Also he started as a novice adventurer (Like Derplander in 1.0)
• Lamimi has a (unrequited given what happens to her and the rest after 3.4) love for Arbert and a motherly personality
• Naiilbert was originally a rival to Arbert, then Flood of Light happened. They shared a mercenary contract.
• Blaenherz met Arbert when he was abut a green adventurer and gave him counsel.
• J'rhoomale was picked up by chance. And apprently her sadistic streak is attributed to "feeling the weight of the world on her shoulders more keenly than her companions"
• The Ascian they willed was Mitron, counterpart to Belias.

Haven;t seen anything on the GC leaders yet.
