Why That Race?

[The Golem]

So the idea is simple, why did you choose your character's race to be that race? Would your character be any different as another race?

As for myself, I chose to play a Yanar character since they share a love for nature and tend to be calm, two things which I share. If he was any other race, he might look like some scrawny plant nerd

I chose to play two Ailors due to the cultural diversity it would have to offer. An Etosian and a Daendroque-Catala? Rather uncommon.

I really love bears, so it's obvious why I wanted to play an Ur.

As for my Qadir, the lore for them deeply fascinates me as well as their culture.

 

[MrHappyTinkles]

I exclusively play Ailor or Nelfin because I like to limit race-inherent traits that affect the character's personality. Gets tiring to see every yanar act like the same nature-loving, friendly plant people, or the Urs being oafish gentle giants.

 

[Johto_Jo]

I play ailors. Uh. I like boring races. I'm not sure. ^^; Naushe is a bit of an exception, due to his peculiar hair and skin tone, but Iunno. For some reason, I can't really get into playing anything other than humans :< Also, Regalia is supposed to be highly populated by ailors, so I figured I'd help out in that aspect x'3

Ee, if you can't tell. I love Yanar, a lot. I love the silent Nenya speech and having Evergrowth is pretty fun. Perhaps it's also that they have something of a Luna Lovegood-ish feel to them, since other races are not likely to get the listening-to-plants thing. I don't really know, but they're unusual and I like them!~

 

[HydraLana]

I love the Naylar, always have since the first day I joined the server back when they were called the Naga.

 

[Eccetra]

Yanar! I've always been a Yanar since way back when they healed with red flowers and had a Nymph subrace.

They are very reserved and peaceful, which I relate to a lot, and I also find them very unique appearance-wise so it was a lot of fun deciding the plantlife on Ni!

 

[Simcity_4]

I like to stick to the races I can skin without too-too much trouble. But I like the Naylar because lizards. Nelfin have some pretty nice lore behind them and I like how Humans are the more flexible race. Florae are pretty cool too because I am a big plant lover and stuff.


i just realized i have stupid reasons for liking races.

 

[Grimmsome]

I chose my race out of a quick decision for Alea when I first joined. I didn't know what I was gonna do, but I just wanted to be an elf. Simple 'nuff.

 

[questimrk]

I prefer Thylans and other Dargons, It's actually pretty fun. <3

 

[Lizmun]

Naylar pls. Especially Dakkar.

I dunno. I just really like the Idea of a Dakkar. Their underground and spartan lifestyle seems interesting.
Also they eat metal, how cool is that
Also they kinda remind me of dinosaurs. I love dinosaurs <3

[HereticTakao]

Ailors, cause they are freckin' awesome, like. All the different cultures to choose from, your bound to find one you like.
But also I like Q'urebo, because 1) They are cute af, and 2) they are fun af to play as. Being a small little creature, scavenging and being a little rascal just seems fun to me (H)(hug)

 

[Boneead6]

Urs Urs Urs!

 

[Beetletoes]

I generally don't like playing humans. Mainly because I am one. I really prefer Nelfin and Kleinfolk races. Also, The Mekket don't get enough love.

 

[Xerxes145]

The Chi'en-Ji are where it's at. They have a supremely awesome history and culture (I've always loved East Asian/Oriental culture), have awesome golden eyes (I mean, who doesn't want golden eyes?), are naturally gifted in the art of magic, get a new language to speak that not many people know (Tatsugo, the dragon-tongue) and are generally a mysterious and introverted people. Perfect for me. I get skills and abilities I love, with a history that makes my character more dynamic. They're like the embodiment of everything I love.

 

[NChulingeth]

Nelfin since magic stuffs, querbo since they can be innocent adorable buggers, and since I can infest the sewers with cret'venir

 

[lordstandragon]

The naylar are the most interesting to me, especially the dakkar because of their interesting culture and their near racist hate of the the dwarves makes rp more interesting.

 

[The Unknown]

I Love the Mekket. I mean, it's difficult to think up a unique reason for one being in regalia, especially for the Vissi and Torrp, but actually playing them is really fun for me. I've loved them since I joined as a Vespid. <3
