Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

Ergo, you put the bunny crown on a Highlander, and it's the same idea.

While I can't speak for Theodric, my problem with that particular fanart is the face shape. Going at least by the female Viera models, that fanart's face is much more Miqo'te than it would ever be a Viera. Then you also have the face paint which is similar to things that already exist on Miqo'te.
I feel like the debate has needlessly expanded beyond that particular fanart to race generalizations, but maybe it's just me ^^;
