    Where Are Child NPC Locations, Preferably with Parent?

    Hello folks. Looking for child NPCs in game for a scene in one of my next music videos; ideally the child’s mother should be there, as the child will be addressing her. Alternatively I could have a PC play the role of the mother of course. Child should be pre-teen, hyur is probably best. Would prefer one located in an ARR area, and flight should be possible in the zone. I have been looking around but have not found much. Assistance would be appreciated!

    There arent many children in the game in the first place - and most of them only appear if they're involved in a quest (mainly around starlight). Most children that we get to see seem to be orphans anyways.

    Your best bet would probably be the playground in Gridania, at 9.7/12.2 - there are a coupld elezen and hyur children there, but no mother and no flying allowed.

    Aside from the above, the only other places I know of with children are Mor Dhona after a point in the post-ARR Story and possibly Ishgard.

    Does Eorzea have an FBI that I can call?

    The only child NPC that stands out for me atm is Khloe but she doesn't have a parent. There were some Doman kids during the end of ARR and HW in Mor Dhona that could be found in a spot behind the tomestone vendors. I'm not sure atm if they're out and about in Doma after it got rebuilt tho.

    We see some children in the Gold Saucer too. There's one parent-child near the entrance where you get off the airship. There is also another hyur child accompanied by a Roegadyn parent.

    Does the Ul'dah tutorial quest thread count? There's a part where you hand cookies out to children, some of which are lalafells.
    However, they look no different from other lalafells, so I don't know what it's worth.

    Someone's video of that quest: https://youtu.be/23dfM-14bKE?t=95
    I'm sure it's been done elsewhere, too. In my opinion it's less meant to depict lalafellin children and more that lalafells are inserted as children due to their childlike appearance (and limited child models in the game, especially in ARR). I'm just not sure how after doing this, they could come out and say lalafellin children look significantly different from their elders.

    Ah, and here I was hoping someone found little 6 inch tall Lalafell children in game that could be accidentally stepped on XD.

    If you have someone who is a Miqo'te, you might be able to glean some vid captures from their MSQ interactions with Riqi'Tio. Also, you have the Aliapoh's (SP?) in Idylshire where you could have Zhloe play the part of mom which she kind of is already. Those scenes are during the Custom Deliveries for Zhloe. Not sure if any of them stay around in the orphanage. Of course, you always have Khloe, too.

    Oh! There's also an orphanage in the Firmament which has some quests featuring kids and Charlemend's Custom Deliveries.

    Another one I forgot about: The pixie quests! A lot of those feature children and their parents/guardians.

    "Then what is magic for?" Prince Lir demanded wildly. "What use is wizardry if it cannot save a unicorn?"
    Schmendrick did not turn his head. With a touch of sad mockery in his voice, he said, "That's what heroes are for."
