I'd hope that the cat girls would be rare, but given SE's own perpetuation of that theme, I don't see it happening, sadly. I'll agree with those who are going with some of the big cats as inspiration - it's easy to see how a puma or lion based Miqo'te could be a very formidable character.
Personally, I'm still unsure of what I want to play. I'm really leaning either towards a Sun Seeker Miqo'te or a Sea Wolf Roegadyn. The Miqo'te appeals to my "good looking" senses, while the Roegadyn appeals to the ideal of creating a "gentle giant".
We'll just have to see which I "feel" more when Open Beta arrives.

I designed Seraj in mainly "golden" colors exactly with this in mind ^^. She's definitely not meant to be cutesy, which is why slightly more feral options in the character creation would have been nice, but oh well.
And Malrend: Weremoths would be AWESOME!

Werelampreys....I be getting visions, and they ain't pretty. Werefish? Wait those would be mermaid/men things. Been done. Werefly? Ditto--see bad B movie that I love anyway. Werehorse! Wait, um centaur. Dang. I fail at new weres.
Oh, and I refuse for my Miqo'te to have fleas. Nada. Or like catnip. Or milk. And nobody better grab my tail...unless inivted.

Is so true. Saw you in RL thread. Spooky resemblence. :o

You're actually the majority, at about a good ~70%. however ~68% of females who play MMOs also play as male characters and not females, while ~34% of males cross over to be female characters.
Re: Questions of Race Anyone? - Kashemia - 08-31-2010
Yeah, girls are no longer as rare as some people would like the believe ^^ Especially not among roleplayers, there always seem to be a lot of chicks

Yeah I was one of those girls once. I played a male becuase I got sick of getting harrassed by people after they found out I was a real girl gamer. *shudders* I did it to get away from them. But the miqo'te are my favorite. And I will play the kitty race! :cheer: Just need a stick to bat at the guys with later.
I have no intention of playing a male this time around!
