Hi, I have a couple of questions about a Hunter!MC!
How does a white hair streak work with an MC who has white or silver hair? You said white hair is an indication to a Hunter's bloodline, but what does it mean for MC who canonically has only 1% Hunter heritage? Is their white hair just a few shades off, or does it have something that makes it different from a "pure-blooded" Hunter's white hair? Or would people just initially assume MC is "pure-blooded" too before realizing no, they aren't? (I hate using "pure-blooded" but I have no idea what else to use, sorry about this)
If MC was somehow taken to the Hunters' territory in the Reach as a child, would they have been accepted into the community or shunned for being being an outsider and not fully a Hunter? (Judging by some answers, people like Tallys and Halek have quite strict opinions on who counts as their people and not... is it because of history, or pre-existing views on non-full members?)
Related to above, would MC have been allowed to train to become a "certified" Hunter since they are only 1% Hunter? Would their Mage heritage play a role in their acceptance or rejection?
Speaking of certification, did Maj not have their own "training centers" or such? I know they were just a farming community, but not even as protection?
What was Maj like? Its climate, its culture (they seem pretty assimilated, what with MC's birthday celebration and stuff), its geography etc.
Hi, this is a lot of questions, so I'm going to answer them in brief!
I've answered this before here, here, and here, but the "pale" or "silvery" hair color options for MC are not the same as the snow-white hair color of the Hunters, so if they have pale hair + the Hunter hair streak, most people would either not notice their streak of white because it would blend in from afar, or they would notice it because the two shades (silver being more grayish) would look quite different from each other! But in either case, they wouldn't assume MC is a full-blooded Hunter because their hair color is noticeably different from a Hunter's (i.e. not stark, snowy white). Hope that makes sense!
If the MC had been a member of the Reach when they were a child, they wouldn't necessarily have been treated badly (like they would still be treated as a member of the community in most instances, allowed to play with other Hunter children, go to school, have dinner at neighbors' houses, etc.), but there also would have been certain discriminations against them, such as the expectation that they wouldn't marry a full-blooded Hunter or into one of the old clans, and they likely wouldn't have been granted access to the Hunters' secret libraries. So they wouldn't have been ostracized or outright rejected as a social pariah in their day-to-day life, but there also would have been an unspoken barrier that would prevent them from partaking in certain things as well! There are plenty of people with mixed blood who live in the different Hunter cities across the Reach, incidentally; they live pretty normal lives except when it comes to marriage, taking on political positions of leadership, or earning the certification to become a full-fledged exorcist!
No, a Mage with only 1% Hunter blood would not have been allowed to become an exorcist in the White Order, simply because to do so requires the use of grace (the Hunters' demon-hunting power), which does not manifest in children of mixed blood.
No, I would say most rural villages, farming communities, and small towns throughout Blest don't have training centers, just as most farms and fiefs in medieval times didn't; weapons training is not as much of a concern as surviving and putting food on the table for common everyday folk, and life in Maj was hard enough--there was no time, resources, or instructors around to set up a training center.
Maj was quite a hot and dusty place year-round; it was nestled among rocky foothills covered in shale and stones and hardly ever saw snow. It wasn't a "harsh" climate in that it was prone to many weather disasters (no one was dying of winter storms or from big floods), but it was hard land to farm on, with packed, dry earth that was difficult to plow and meager crops. Maj was not initially intended to be a farming settlement at all, and was originally a trading outpost positioned at the last crossroads before travelers crossed the mountains and embarked West; it was only turned into a farming community when the Hunter immigrants arrived after their exodus and they saw there wasn't enough travel or trade through the area to sustain them all. As for the culture, the game talks about this as you talk to different characters about your upbringing, but the Hunters in Maj were quite removed from their native background, partially because they were disenchanted and disenfranchised and had pretty much given up on maintaining their old ties to their culture (because they were expelled from Haven for doing so). They were basically traumatized and considered speaking of or leaning too hard into their traditions as dangerous: I think MC refers to overhearing their parents discouraging a neighbor from talking too much about learning how to use their powers at some point.
Hope that's all helpful!

A Ten, But…
tagged by @tabswrites (thank you!). i only have efaw as a wip at the moment, so i'll do that.
eight for a wish:
crow: she's a ten but her lack of self-conceptualisation as an autonomous person apart from her family means doesn't even consider people flirting with her a posibility.
maj: she's a ten, but her heart is clearly fully set on someone else, so it would probably just make everyone involved unhappy to try and date.
el: she's a ten but she's too set on getting herself killed to date.
tagging..........@liv-is @macabremoons @sparrowrising @constellies and anyone else who would like to participate!

Goth outfit for Maj. Basically, I used to think about it as a remake of her supercostume, but it isn't really usable for something extremely active, so let it be just an outfit
