Gender locked race?

[Wolfyboy]

They'd have to do something otherwise yeah, it's going to be boring - but then again if they're going the gender locked route then it's already going to be a race that doesn't have two distinct sub-races as well as lacking their male counterparts.

Part of me wishes that Hrothgar is the subrace to Viera that simply doesn't live in the wood and thus has the smaller ears and mane-like hair, perhaps lives in mountain/snow climate - like an Arctic hare. Arctic hares are much smaller than normal hares having smaller limbs and smaller ears than their counterparts. Also of course not forgetting that 'Viera' means 'of the wood'. Seems highly unlikely, however; unless people can't tell the difference between a 'cat' and a 'rabbit' in descriptions.

That wouldn't make sense with the French leaks since it was separated by races and not by clans, so I wouldn't even say unlikely but a hard, "No."

My line of thought is that they wouldn't call themselves Viera due to the actual meaning of what 'Viera' is. To them, someone not born of the wood or who leaves the wood is no longer considered a Viera. Makes you wonder what they actually call themselves after that - well if a large bulk of them broke away from that way of life to create a new 'clan'.

Honestly yeah, it's a hard no - would certainly make me cock a brow. Speculation is speculation.
