be Ananta

[Averax]

It's just a race like the hyur or elezen. Hydaelyn can't be racist nor picky, when everything's in chaos.

Can a large sentient rock be racist?

In any case, the WoL is somebody that people have to look up to and trust, and there is a side quest where somebody who has never seen an Ananta freaks out and tries to kill her before asking any questions. If the WoL were a beastman, people would be more afraid of them, rather than trust them

So yeah, beastmen races are off the table.
