To be fair, there is already a thread about Viera, while this one was started to discuss dwarves.

I can't believe my viangaa trolling turned into a legit discussion haha. I don't really want it as a race, I want it as a minion (OR MOUNT :O:O:O:O)
The point brought up is that yes it is original. Think about it, we have 5 race "skeletons" that we can justifiably use - Hyur, Lalafell, Miqote, Elezen, and Roe that future races can build on. Au'ra are similar to Elezen as males, and Mi'qote as females, so ideally we want to stay away from those proportions if we want something original (I would say that Viera would be along the lines of Elezen and Au'ra making it unoriginal). What I want to see is ANYTHING that is along the lines of the lalafell skeleton (dwarves?), or the roegadyn skeleton (big beastly wolf?).
I'd take anything that isn't more waifu crap at this point.
By people you mean the dev team right? Because that is official concept art from the dev team, it's not fan made

Big question to everyone who wants Viera: How does a Viera wear the gold saucer bunny ears?
I have to agree with this. The more races the better even if they aren't the most popular or an ugly race. As far as only sexy races being done they could make the female dwarves sexy as long as the males were thick and burly. It would be sacralidge lol but I could accept that for the mighty power of the beard
