Au Ra physiology and other lore.

I guess I was right in thinking that one clan (where yugiri comes from) is more social and thus more, while another clan lives on the fringes of society/ more isolated.

I wonder how the Xaela naming will be? Seems like they'll atleast use more atypical letters like X

Q1: Could you please tell us the naming conventions for the Au Ra?
A1: There are two clans: Au Ra Raen and Au Ra Xaela. Au Ra Raen have been closely related to the Domans for long time, so their names are somewhat Japanese-like. The Xaela on the other hand have led a nomadic lifestyle for some time, and they have a unique naming convention.

That interests me as well. We already learned from Roegardyn than there can be drastic differences between two subraces. One is adjective everyday object, the other is keyboard headbut. For some reason I imagine Xaela to use similar names to mi'qote, but with a lot of X mixed in. Maybe X and Q. Yeah Xaela are probably chinese mi'qote.
Speaking of which. How are they pronounced? Zaela? Ksaela? Sheaela?
