Let's think about this logically.

where is the logic in a country that have massive hate against dragons let hybrid-dragon wander freely in their cities?

I'm inclined to agree with Hik0. Logically, there must be more Storyline that we have not yet been exposed to. Especially when you consider how my last post ended, and pointed to the Lore Sub Forums . . .

I'm hoping for some pretty radical, world-shaping revelations in the final storyline quests that will so throughly mix things up in Ishgard that their very faith in the Dragonsong war is shaken. Shaken so thoroughly, that a culture known to so obsessed with hatred for anything dragon to have hunted a fish near to extinction simply for resembling a dragon will be willing to allow half-dragons to walk the streets of their capitol unmolested.

That may be hoping for a bit much, granted. I'll be satisfied if they provide even a half-assed reason why Au Ra aren't skewered on sight. Just as long as they don't simply ignore the problem, which I fear may be all-too likely to happen...

I know the Au Ra are an over used topic as of late, but anyone else wondering (after the pax east show) that the Au Ra might me more closely related to Demons than Dragons?

Yugiri does say how the people of Eozea might not look kindly apon her people. And we all know how Gridania hates those Demons. Yoshi-P did say "The face structure, for this race, is a little different than what you're currently familiar with. There is a certain direction that isn't really reptilian, but more succubus-like, or demon-like." So maybe all them dragon fan boys have a chance at being wrong :P Personally I would love the idea that they aren't dragon related. What do you all think?

No such thing as an over-used topic regarding the Au Ra. There's not enough information about them and not enough discussions and speculations!

I like the fact we can make them more succubus/incubus like myself. Gives us a better sense of the level of customization we're getting.

It was mentioned earlier that most people in Ishgard will have a cold tone with the adventurers coming in, so it's unlikely we'll see much special dialogue for Auri players verses the other races.

On another note, Yugiri is supposed to reveal her full self during After the Fall Part 2, and I wonder if maybe her unstoppably good self and leadership amoung the Domans now building Mor Dhona as their home city has something to do with Ishgard lightening up on Auri people. I mean, they very obviously have good reasons to play nice with Mor Dhona, them being a literal fortress standing between them and a Garlean base and housing the Scions, so that may be a part of the reason why they turn a blind eye to Au Ra people walking around.

That's a good point... And with Midgardsormr's threats against Ishgard coming to fruition, edifying and rewritting their dogmas against dragonkind will be a matter of survival.

He also described that he wanted to make sure that the race would be a popular selection, so the female characters were modelled after body types that statistically should eb selected more often, which is why they range from super cute to awesome Succubus.

There are no Demons in FFXIV, only Voidsent. And no, I don't think Au Ra resemble voidsent at all.

The demons and succubus in this game do have 'scales' in certain places, much like the Auri (though the demons are pretty much entirely scaly/boney). It would also make much more sense as to why Yugiri would hide her appearance, as the void sent demons are killed upon sight (for obvious reasons), whereas beastmen (if they're not tempered by their Primal) are allowed to live peacefully amongst the humans.
