Do you have a favourite 'beast tribe' in this game? If so, which?

Yes, the accurateness of the category 'beast tribe' is even questioned by in-game scholars (and within the Encyclopedia Eorzea), but for the sake of convenience we'll continue to use the term.

I myself have not played through the questlines of many beast tribes yet, but I have completed the Pixie quests. I love the extension of the Shakespeare allusions, as well as the association of the Fae with dreams. Plus, the flying porxie mount is a pretty sweet reward.

In general though, I love how each race has their own quirks, their own way of speaking and their own history and mythology (to say nothing of their inspirations from real world mythology, etc).
 
Oh, I have no cool back story or an actual reason for why this is my favourite beast tribe, but... The Namazu. Apparently in Japanese mythology they are the cause of earthquakes. Mischievous and stinkin' adorable.

Definitely my favourite beast tribe.
