Lalafells are a unique race due to their childlike appearance and their major height difference compared to the other races, They maintain a very youthful appearance throughout their years so it is difficult for the other races to tell the actual age of a lalafell.
Many of the Lalafell’s hail from the southern seas living of a agricultural lifestyle, before maritime trade routes to their lands allowing them to migrate to eorzea in vast numbers in pursuit of various trades. over the years the lalafells had great influence and key roles in history of eorzea especially in the Fifth Astral Era in founding the cities of Nym on Vylbrand, as well has the mystic city of Mhach before both cities saw their collapse in the Sixth Umbral Calamity, the Mhach Lalafell’s had to migrate to find new homes for themselves eventually settling in the wastes of thanalan while the Nymian lalafells deploying their seafaring skills to travel back to the southern seas to their original home lands.
You can find great many Lalafells in many of the major cities considering they are now one of the major races of Eorzea but in Lalafell’s culture there is great emphasis on blood relations, there can be a few who can get along amicably with members of all races. These come across in their success has traders and merchants, but due to their talents of trading Lalafells can come across greedy and calculating these isn't always the case The histories of Lalafells are passed down via song rather than written down. But there is very few that can find it in their hearts to completely dislike the Lalafells, with their inherently bright and jovial nature so persecuting Lalafells are very few and far between.
