    Eh, we had better Au Ra.

    I don't like furry race for players. But, NPC is ok

    I think they've done it with Au Ra. They explicitly say that Auri do not come from dragons.... Which makes them plain reptiles.

    Au Ra are descended from void sent, which makes them tieflings (demonhalves)

    This is false.

    In an interview they said they have a demonic "motif", motif is an aesthetic term wich refer to the art or design style not the origin of the race.

    Everything in the Au Ra entry in the lorebook is about how they are the descendants of dragons in their mythos, but it's not confirmed.

    They are not demons, not dragons, not even toaster people. So lizard people is all we have.

    Don't you mean "scaley race"? :P

    But yeah, I'd like a playable race that's different enough from the current races to actually be non-humanoid.

    The current races are mostly just human-looking with a larger variety of skin tones (like greens and blues) and/or animal ears/horns stuck on.

    And the Viera would not fill this role one bit, no, given how the Au Ra looked in concept art but were then watered down to what they are now.

    Just make the MGS bunny ears equippable by males and we don't need the Viera...
