As a minority, is it out of the question to hope for representation?

1: OP is welcome to view my posts. As is everyone on the forums. This isn't an evidentiary hearing where things must be submitted formally or anything.
2: Yeah... likewise, I'm not on trial, here. If someone is not satisfied after reading what I posted... OK? Good for them. I honestly wouldn't expect them to be considering the topic is wanting 'More representation' and I was simply countering what was essentially a 'No representation' claim.
3: Why so snarky? I simply mentioned a prominent male Miqo'te and (lightheartedly at first) threw out that his plotline is referenced as part of the main story. You've been awfully aggressive the entire time since, which is, admittedly, making me more aggressive as well.

You asserted that a mention of a character by a side character in optional content is equivalent to their appearance, I said it's not. You've been snarky about it from the get go, and I have responded in kind.

You've misread.
The reference is not equivalent to an appearance.
I hold the story you dismiss as 'side-content' as being as relevant as the MSQ.
I (again, jokingly at first) used the reference to tie that story to the MSQ (since you've arbitrarily decided that's the deciding factor for character relevance).

The line itself doesn't make him relevant. The whole sodding quest-line does. Which may not be good enough for you, but whatever.

I accidentally opened Tumblr didn't I?

Objectively speaking Femroes look no different from the Amazons, big bulky women with permanent hate scowls. They look more like Diablo's Barbarians, or Zarya, as an example. And trust me, while I like Zarya, FemRoes do not look any different from buff women of any stripe across most any media. They don't look FF at all to me.

FemAu Ra are less represented then Lalafel, Miqo, Eleven, or Hyur. Does it matter? Not really, even if there's an Au Ra in art, it's still not my Au Ra.

I need to point out that there is a femroe in this image, but i can see why people would dismiss her as not being there since, besides lalas she is the smallest and furthest character in the image. You'll also notice that the only male lalas are shoved in the back with here. Hmmm... I wonder? And there is no male Hyur either.

Considering that she has 0 features it's kinda hard to tell what exactly she is.

I will say, the artist of this piece is most definitely a boob guy (gal).

They even tried to give the lala up front a chest. Bless their little heart.

The more I look at it the weirder some of the proportions get :0

Come on, it's not that bad! You got Moenbryda-- Oh, right...

Seriously though, consider the fact that hardly anybody plays a female Roegadyn. If representation is so important to you, pick a more popular race.

There is nothing wrong with having variety in the posters if it means it gets to show off the races in game, not just focusing on the popular, more waifu races. Are most of the characters in game cat or lizard? Yes.

But having artwork that shows off the more rare races can help show that such choices are possible.
