The loporrits are small, fluffy, long-eared bipeds hailing from the moon, originally created by Hydaelyn to serve as logistical support for the burgeoning New World. With their boundless energy and earnest dedication, they are miniature masters of organization, always seeking to fulfill a “purpose.” They navigate the world with an unflappable optimism, often taking things literally and expressing deep satisfaction in completing even the most mundane of tasks. While their understanding of complex emotions or nuanced social dynamics can sometimes be lacking, their genuine desire to help and their cheerful demeanor often win over even the most cynical of hearts.
Visually, loporrits resemble humanoid rabbits, standing just under three feet tall, with large expressive ears that swivel to catch every sound, bright inquisitive eyes, and a fluffy bob-tail. Their fur comes in various shades of cream, white, grey, or tan, and they often wear practical, uniform-like clothing, meticulously clean and free of wrinkles. They communicate with a series of high-pitched chirps, trills, and saccharine-sweet melodic phrases, interspersing their speech with their unique brand of organizational terminology. When a loporrit joins an adventuring party, it’s typically because they’ve found a new, grander “purpose” in helping others, or perhaps because their original celestial logistics have led them astray into the wider, more chaotic world of Eorzea.
Loporrit names are often short, whimsical, and sometimes related to sounds, numbers, or simple concepts, reflecting their straightforward nature. They don’t typically have family names, as their entire society is built on collective purpose. A loporrit adventurer might be named Pupu, Nono, Coco, Toto, or even something more directly descriptive like Beep, Whiskers, or Hop. Their drive to contribute makes them surprisingly adaptable, and while they may struggle with abstract concepts, their innate intelligence and tireless work ethic make them excellent support characters, eager to apply their unique skills to whatever “purpose” their new companions present.
