I look forward to seeing what you come up with!I could be wrong but I kind of remember seeing a Miqo'te in the Arcanist Guild where you can see them... I assume training their Carbuncles. Besides, while it's likely to say that the majority of Miqo'te are not inclined to higher intellectual pursuits, if we as players can break the mold of the norm there is nothing that says that generations before us were not capable of it as well.
Personally I think it could be really cool to see characters that might fit the naming conventions but don't fall into the societal norms for their race.
I know. I just like to see reasons for not following x convention.Which most people are more than likely to have!
FOR SHAMEEEEE
..My Miqo'te is very Hyurish in her interests due to her upbringing. But I also have the 1.0 excuse. x_x
But the thing is, they are still Miqo'te and still have those underlying traits that make them such. While Aysun acts more Hyurish than most Miqo'te, I could not roll her a Hyur and have her make any sense whatsoever. Her race is still a part of her personality.
