NTA but
>can you marry npcs in this game
Sadly no. But you can marry your friend or loved one. I met my girlfriend playing the game and we are "Eternally Bonded" aka in-game married.
>what is an aether current?
It looks like a green swirling portal.You get an item stored in your "collections" menu called an aether compass that will lead you to them. For quests, they're quests in the zone with a + sign.

Have fun out there!

It's a lalafell. Lalafells are the mandatory small and cute race in FFXIV. They're short with round heads and small faces, though how round and small depends on the artist in official art.
