Sorry no, Those Moogles designed to give their chores to the Warrior of Light because the Warrior of Light is just a tool to them. Hence they are jerks.

As for adding another kind of Moogle, I don't think there is any way to resolve the lore to do this. The Ivalice moogles look more like rabbits with tiny wings.

A "playable" moogle race would never happen because Square-Enix uses them as a "cute and cuddly" mascot character for the Final Fantasy series as a whole, and the last thing you need is players uploading video of Moogles-Gone-Wild.


What SE could do to give us another potato-race is make a Miqo'tefell or Aurafell that is simply a lalafell with a Miqo'te head and tail or Au Ra head and tail. No additional gear needs to be created. That's probably not what people want however.

The other option is creating a "flashback" scene that de-ages your character (notice how few children NPC's there are other than Hyur) for the cutscene and gives you an option of Glamoring to that age with a limited selection of clothing. Thus we have a "Adventurer's kids" solo dungeon. I'm actually surprised FFXIV doesn't do the "Play someone else via a flashback" thing. That would be a much more useful mechanic than simply a grey-scaled echo flashback.
