Suggestion: Playable Bird Race

[DamianFatale]

A bird race would be so cool. Maybe it could be influenced by harpies. I love birds, and I think it would be so interesting.

I would love for this to happen! That and a plant a unisex plant based race. ^^

Maybe in the distant future. For now, though, no new playable races should be added until the existing playable races see major additions and fixes to their character creation systems.

Well, as long as they don't tape wings onto a Hyur and call it a bird I'm fine with it. Balancing be damned, I'd want the "arms" to be for flight like a proper bird and the majority of the melee coming from the talons or whatever is strapped to them. Casting and ranged weapons would be S-E's bag of feral cats to develop into a thing. Though a Predatorish shoulder cannon for MCH would be both easy peasy enough I'd imagine while being sufficiently awesome. ...and what is with this obsession with gender gear as of late. Everything is rehashed from other gear styles already in game or is on Mogstation.

Obligatory rez macro for a bird race: <t> stop hanging out Amid the Flowers!

You mean like this?

I'd imagine the character and armor design modelers would have a fit trying to make it work. You dont want them to work too hard.

Unfortunately this is about as likely as them adding FF12 Viera's to the game, minor edits to gear and anatomy is just too much of a hassle for them apparently.

[Mimilu]

If they added an avian race, I would want them to be based on something silly and/or cute like penguins, parrots, or Kiwis. >w> ♥

[Alenaar]

That's a tremendous idea! I would just like to say that I absolutely ADORE elephants and I am convinced that an elephant-inspired race would also make a great addition to FFXIV.
