What if the Devs added another "Clan" for each Race?

[TheMightyMollusk]

Garleans are a distinct race from Hyurs, not a clan. Plus they'd have to work around Garleans being unable to manipulate aether; otherwise they literally can't use any existing player job.

Maybe Doman Hyur instead?

Othardian hyur is just hyur tho. ._.

They're able to manipulate aether, it's just rare. Though the Warrior of Light/Darkness is already many levels of special so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch. The game also draws a clear distinction between regular Garleans and Imperial Garleans. We frequently see major characters team up with the former and working with the latter is something that has happened at least once in the form of Regula van Hydrus.

With that said, adding a third eye glamour would be enough for many of those who choose to role-play Garleans.

I've been asking for this for a while cause I want a clan of Roegadyn that has BLUE skin. Not the off greys and green. Blue like the Au Ra and Elezen.

I don't think we're get a "Garlean" for Hyur... They're technically their own thing, and they can't use magic, so there would need to be some big lore retcon. But I could see us getting a "Doman" variant for Midlander.

Honestly I would just be happy to get more hair and skin colors for the existing clans.

Adding new clans is a super cool idea and a cool way to give us more character options without adding more races.

[Penthea]

I would think new clans would be great! That being said, I think it would be better not to touch the clans that already exist. I would flip my lid if they made Duskwights (my main since ARR) hunched over.

Yea as long as they keep the clans we have now I'm totally up for new ones. Even if they're just some minor physical changes between them like most we have now it would add more variety for character creation without having another hrothgar/viera sort of situation with headgear. This is actually very feasible for SE to do without giving them an enormous workload.

Once Viera and Hrothgar implemented fully in their intended entirety, along with the other races and them getting upgrade to the character customization system, I can definitely see this happening it would LOVE it!!!!

I'd like to see a tiny fairy-like Viera clan a full on demonic looking Au'ri clan, a very feral looking Miqo'te and Hrothgar clans....Uh, that's all I got off the top of my head. Maybe deep cavern Elezen (like the ones from Skyrim), short and stubby dwarf looking Roegydan and.....a middle ground Hyur between Midlanders and Highlanders or maybe even a "Lowlander" Hyur, if such a thing exists.

As for Lalafell, I'd love to see an dark and vicious looking version of them based off the Man-Eater Qikirn since they're the race who always gets picked on and eaten by monsters. So why not have them do the same in return to said monsters? Like how in that one Jurassic Park movie where the one bad dude was picking on a tiny dinosaur and minutes later he got torn apart by a horse of them. xD

Beyond that, I would love to see the Xaela have more pronounced canine teeth. For some reason, the "perfectly straight teeth, with no canines at all" just looks bizarre to me. Also, as said above, Xaela should have a more "normal-looking stance", the current looked too uptight.

I'm all for it, as long as they don't change existing characters just like that.
Even if I think myself that the default male Au Ra stance looks a bit weird, if they change anything about them, I want to choose myself if I want to use it.
I'm perfectly happy with the female Au Ra stance, their emotes and their overall looks. And for male Au Ra it's only their default standing pose I don't like. More options are nice - as long as they're options!

[Clover_Blake]

Personally, I'd rather have new options for all the existing clans, like new base faces and make-up options (>_<)
Creating new ones would mean that the current ones won't have new possibilities added.
