New possible race

[Tonkra]

We already also have a race that is in the game but that isnt playable. The padjal Race:






the one with horns.
I personally would play them.

But maybe the Padjal race should stay exclusive to the lore (being rare and close to nature), well.
And maybe it would look awkward having horns looking through helmets to each side.

Padjal are not a race.
As a race you have to be born as that, not be turned in that after you was born. Padjals are Hyurs, who got turned to Padjals by the Elementals.

The only way to make them playable would be a special quest only available to Hyurs, where you have to convince the Elementals to turn you into a Padjal.

Aren't the padjal not playable because they're a special kind of hyur and are too few in number due to their rarity in the twelveswood to be playable? It'd be great if they were a third playable hyur clan though. ^^

From the lore book:

The youthful and long-lived Padjal are not a race unto themselves, but rather are born rarely into certain Hyur families in the Twelveswood, the process of ageing slowing to a crawl as they approach puberty. Naturally attuned to the whispers of the forest, these horned, childlike beings serve as a living link between man and elemental. The Padjal have a long history as the region's healers and protectors and as the chosen of the elementals are sanctioned in the use of White Magic.

So basically, unless people are perfectly happy with breaking/disregarding the lore, Padjal will never, ever be playable ever. No matter how much players beg SE to make them playable (Viera and Wolfmen have a way higher chance).

Playable Raya-O would have been perfect for me. I'd make room for her on my roster in an instant.

[Dualblade]

Padjal are even rarer than male miqo'tes are, and with even fewer ever actually stepping out of the Gridanian area. And one of those only does it if you finish the lvl 60 WHM quest. You'd sooner get both the wolfs AND Viera before they are ever made playable.

Padjal are midlanders born from normal midlander families, elemental Gabriel makes them what they are.

[Kling-Klang]

That looks like wolf masks to me. Looks rather silly if its a race, human everything except the mask-like head?

[Mogurio]

Their tails are moving, so I guess is not a suit or something, but the fact they all look ugly and literally the same makes me think that it will only be a new beast tribe and nothing more.

I think so, too
It can be the 3rd beast tribe for the crafting dailys.
