New Race Announced! The Au Ra

[Parodine]

Yeah, the only way her face would've disturbed people was if she has very prominent horns. From her mask, maybe she does. But the females do look just a bit like midlanders with a tail.

Just rewatched the Au Ra video from this thread {http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/210223-For-those-who-missed-the-FF-vids}
if you look closely, the female Au Ra actually has scales on her neck and her forehead.
The horns also seem to be quite visible, even from the front.

I for one really like the new race and I'll be an Au'Ra femme day one I like my cat, but I identify more character-wise with the new race. They are petite, exotic, and still not overdone yet very pretty <3 I'm not particularly digging the males, but I'm going to wait until I see them in game before I pass any judgement on them. They might end up growing on me. I'm just hoping for a free Fantasia with the expansion, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Same here. Of course if I can't get my hands on a new fantasia potion I will have to settle for a retainer, but I always go for the most exotic race-class combo whenever I play. That will be Au-Ra astrologian. And besides. We need the insight of living as a half dragon if we want a just conlcusion to the war between Ishgard and the dravanian horde.

Still, I was surprised that we learned the new race like this. I always envisioned the reveal to come in-game from Yugiri. Now I know she looks cute.
