I think most people want fierce and hawt. I'm not trying to insult the current Roeg females out there, but they don't generally fit the mainstream idea of sexy.

1. Fierce looking rabbit amazon (Fran)
2. Bunny mi'qote (Y'shtola with rabbit ears)
3. Bunny lala (Tataru with rabbit ears)
4. Actual rabbit people (Hummingway)

I can't choose to be honest, I really like both the cute midget viera sketches and the other more fierce art of them.

I'd rather see a race that's completely unique from the current trend of "hyur+horns/ears" because that's already become somewhat of a meme and yet ANOTHER addition will only make it worse.

But if they do add Viera, I hope they look as bestial and fierce as possible, so much so that they buck the "hyur+horns/ears" trend.

Aren't most of the races suppose to be fierce?

As far as appearance goes? I'd say no. Not much is fierce about Lalas, Miqo, Elezen, Hyur (minus a few grizzled Highlander faces maybe), etc.

Story-wise, we're obviously the WoL and enjoy kicking ass in our free-time, but you'd never know it by looking at most of our characters.

I meant more lore wise, I mean Miqo are suppose to be fierce huntresses, Roes and Au Ra are suppose to be savage warrior races. I'm not sure what you do to The bunny race to make them fierce compared to the other races.

I voted in both polls and my vote remained the same. Anyway If they did implement Viera I would want them to be like Fran and the first concept art that was shown in this thread. I’m not looking for cute or miqo’te ish versions.

Its not that people dont watn fierce looking women, they just dont want them to look semi masculine.

When people think Fierce Female Amazon, they think Wonder Woman. Roe women tend to have more masculine facial and body features. And Miqote and Aura Women play to much of the feminine form. Miqote being to wire-y, and Aura being to "cute" and demure in appearance (even for a warrior race).

Edit: To Clarify, Female Roes are more like She-Hulk, AuRa are to demure and cutesy to be fierce, and Miqote are kinda to whispy and slim in build.

This. There's no inbetween. Viera would be an excellent in between.
