    Squeeeeeee, This thread makes me so happy. I'm so glad there are so many pretty Fem Roes running around (They make me look rather butchie >.>) <3 You guys are awesome. I'm so glad we got them implemented. That was a rough fight. But it also makes gloating so much more fun, Because there were people were against us the whole way.

    LOL At my old thread and the Irony on it's first page.

    I appreciate many people want it but for me

    Lore > Adding Choices for ManCat FemRogs...

    FXI established well the Lore behind the omissions and while FFXIV hasn't yet I am not about to push for the change.

    Again I am on the opposite side of the fence enjoying the familliarity and nuances of the races being reintroduced.

    Having said that, should those who have wishes counter to mine to have the alts be heard and they are added I won't be upset either....


    I wish I had better pictures of Julie, But I'm on PS3 and I have no idea how to extract screenshots.

    Omg I love your Roegadyn!!!! I really love that Roegadyn face I've seen so many nice Roegadyn in game with it >__< I'm probably going to use it for my Melee Roegadyn when I get the time to make her.
    I really want to make a Roegadyn that looks like this NPC here.

    On a side note, there were actually people that didn't want Female Roegadyn!?
    Wow that's crazy! Also, that guy's reasoning is very flawed.

    The reason why there were no female Galka was because they were a race that rebirth, rather than have babies.

    Galka reproduce through a form of reincarnation. It is told that "When a Galka senses his death, he sets out on a journey to climb a high mountain and await his final moments.
    Roegadyn however, are a completely differen't race. Even though Roegadyn share the same features of a Galka(minus the tail).

    Roegadyn are more akin to Celtic Fomorians, and actually give birth to children rather than Rebirth.

    In Irish mythology, the Fomoire (or Fomorians) are a semi-divine race said to have inhabited Ireland in ancient times. They may have once been believed to be the beings who preceded the gods, similar to the Greek Titans.
    The race are known as the Fomoire or Fomoiri, names that are often Anglicised as Fomorians, Old Irish word composed of fo "under/below" and muire "sea", concluding that it may refer to beings whose (original) habitat is under the sea.[2] Observing two instances of the early genitive form fomra, Kuno Meyer arrives at the same etymology, but takes it to refer to land by the sea. In later times any settled pirates or seaborne raiders were labeled Fomorians and the original meaning of the word was forgotten.

    People were idiots back then. I had to fight tooth and nail just to get some of them to realize the Lore was already there. Hell there was a big fight over whether Merlwyb was Roegadyn, Hyur, or even Elezen when they first announced her.

    >.> My belief behind Galka was they went out with the Talekeeper, the Talekeep watched their body die, cut off their tail, then in a form of reverse limb regrowth similar to lizards, the tail grew a new body.
    I used some one shot event items like the Tailcutter to come to the conclusion. It fits, but its not confirmed. Roegadyn just bump nasties and sink ships.


    Does anyone else like jumping in the duty finder to be the tallest person on the team because everyone else is Lalafell >.> That's fun stuff.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    Haha yeah, The lore between the two are completely differen't and the only reason they look the same is because the developers wanted players to ease into FFXIV.
    There are a lot of FF11 players that play XIV, many of them think that FFXIV is FF11-2.

    I'm glad there was someone like you around back then to fight for Female Roegadyn rights!!
