Garlean Third Eye Customization option

[Graeham]

The solution it is easy. They make the Hyur race with the subrace. The Garlemald becoming the subrace like the mid land and the high land. Is not the new race just the new face like the no eyebrow high land.

If this can not be done then make the new glamour spot to add the special item like the backpack or the third eye or the faking beard. If this also can not be done you make the tattoo option for the eye. So many way to make the rp more real.

Please do for the God King Solus.

Perhaps I'm mistaken, but it looked like the lion's share of random nobody pureblood NPCs we ran into in Garlemald were standard models using the usual assets, just with eyes stapled on. Now certain officers and other prominent story NPCs, yes, many of those were unique.

I don’t think you’re following me here.

The fact they have the eye stapled on without a special item equipped means it’s a “unique” face. Behind the scenes most of them have no head item equipped but have a face unavailable and unseen to us in character creator, which to us may look completely the same as a normal hyur, but they have the eye. For example, one Garlean NPC could have complete midlander body and head we can make in character creator, but in the data, they’re using “face #13” because the Garlean eye is a manually added facial feature due to spaghetti code.

They obviously give more care when making more important Garlean NPCs, but the rest still have a “unique” face in the actual game data in order to have the eye.

This needs to happen! Plus, for the elezen, just make their ears round when they wear the third eye. Instant immersive Garlean. :3

Tape a Lalafell to your forehead and fake it?

Regula van Hydrus was shown to be capable of teleportation during the quest line he was involved in back in Azys Lla in Heavensward.

Are you trying to pass off his obvious Megaman style tech based teleport as aether manipulation? LOL

I think Hyurs should have a Garlean third eye customization option. New races aren't going to be added to the game, so I feel like it would be nice if this could be added. The two arguments I can see people giving towards this are "but garleans can also have an elezen body type" and "it wouldn't make any sense in terms of story". As far as the body type, I can't really argue against that, but something is better than nothing. As for it not making sense story wise, the main characters never acknowledge your character's race anyway, so I feel like it wouldn't really matter.

Someone hasn't been paying attention. They have multiple times mentioned your race and even class. As playing as a reaper in the newest questline Y'shtola brings up I already have a contract with a voidsent and that it's an equitable relationship but should understand that I am the exception.

Addressing your class isn't a problem with what I'm saying, and I cannot a recall a single time that they actually address your race in the game. If there is a moment like that, please direct me to it so that I can see what you're talking about. On top of that, I'm not saying they should make a hole other race, I'm saying they should add a third eye customization option to hyurs for the purpose of fun, meaning that even if your race was addressed in game, you would get called a hyur.

They adresse races a couple of times throughout the expansions.

In Heavensward there's a guard in Ishgard that thinks lalafell are weird and can't be trusted, once he see you are one he fumbles with his words.

In Shadowbringers there's plenty of that, when you visit the crystarium for the first time, the NPC Bragi adresse you by your race. In my case he says he is surprised to see a dwarf not in the mountain.

And in Endwalker, when Emet Selch gave you aether, Hythlodaeus is laughing because Emet selch didn't make us big enough.

There's plenty of other instances like that, in MSQ and side content. At least enough for it to be noteworthy in my experience.
