    I mixed up my words, I meant prehensile, like acting as an additional limb. Basically, I was indicating that is Miqo'tes were real, they would move their tails to more sensible locations around their bodies; like the saiyans from DBZ. Though if Miqo'te are meat to mimic regular humans in everything but a few key features, their tails would be vestigial, like "ours" lol.

    The tail is more like that pole tightrope walkers use to balance themselves, it can be done without it but the pole/tail makes it easier.
