Thank you. I was never really going to change the story I came up with. I know that it won't even be effected by whatever Au Ri lore comes out either, to be honest (she was raised in Limsa still, all this stuff) and if her daddy was an Ishgardian who married someone who was not Isghardian, that's still bad from what I understand, regardless of race.
I really just wanted help brainstorming as to why she would have been a Miqo'te until this point, without it being one of the "cheap" Fantasia reasons. I really wanted a story behind it. Like even with glamouring, even if it was hard to come by or you could only get it from the antagonists, I don't think that would have mattered to him, he still might seek that kind of person out (but I realize the other issues with this idea that were discussed earlier).
I'm really grateful that people have pointed out lore points that I wasn't aware of yet, because I really love to learn regardless of the topic or world.
But yeah that was just my main thing. I wanted a good story and help coming up with that story as to why she'd be a miqo'te now at the moment if she was born an Au Ra. Since the racism seems to be a big thing against this race, it seemed like a good plot device to use. But that's about as far as I got.
EDIT: Just saw your post Rakka. I don't have any desire or intent of retiring Ophelia because I want to keep her personality, habits, traits, teahouse, everything. And I really feel like it's a cheap move to just retire her and then create another character who's the exact same thing just for the sake of a game update. I wanted to incorporate the change into Ophelia and her story directly somehow (see above).
