... this one-off female Elezen NPC in the first of 2 Hildibrand quests added in 6.15?
https://i.imgur.com/bR4Xu4t.jpg
I regret not taking a better screenshot (or multiple), but she was very short, basically the same height as Theyler, and yet was... proportionate, her head didn't look tiny at all! She defaults to female Elezen idle stance once you interact with the quest NPC, so she wasn't a midlander with pointy ears or anything of the sort, either.
Purely speculation from this point on, but might they perhaps be updating the height slider to actually modify the character's proportions? It would allow for a greater range than currently possiblewe might even get to make female Au Ra taller than 4 ft
Anyone else notice... [Hildibrand spoilers(?)]

Or maybe they like occasionally showing and saying "Yes, we can do things like this, but we won't put in the effort for all gear. So suck on that"

It seems we might be getting a character creation update alongside the graphics update in 7.0

I though that's the normal Female Elezen's build? From that picture (Also from my encounter) she looks same with other Female Elezen...

Not having done the quests, and only having your one screenshot to go from – is she definitely, comparably that height or is she only in the cutscene and possibly standing downhill from the others? Could they have cheated the angle for the sake of the shot framing?
The head size could just be down to the hairstyle, but would need to be compared to the character creator. -

Alright, rushed through on Shisen to get more screenshots of her.
For reference, Shisen is max height (for all the good that does...)
EDIT: Maybe I'm wrong actually. Ameliance seems to roughly be the same height?
well, delusion was nice while it lasted... -

Won't fix the awful run animation though.

Could just be perspective in that first shot, and her knees are bent. And Theyler seems a bit tall himself.

I think it just comes down to I had no idea just how short (i assume) minimum height female Elezen could be. That said, it's still weird to me that they look proportionate at that size, you'd think that wouldn't be the case given how the slider works (i.e. no finetuning, it just scales the whole model up or down)

Checking character stats plus the listed heights in character creation, Theyler is 175cm tall (50 on the height slider) and the shortest option for female Elezen is 183.5cm, so a difference of only 8.5cm (about 3.5 inches). Theyler does still look relatively too tall in that screenshot, but it could be affected by their poses, and Theyler's spiky hair isn't helping the comparison either.
I couldn't find the Lakeland Elezen NPC in the list of new NPCs from the patch (does she have a name?) but Ameliance is zero height. -
