Sex between the Races Lore?

Black and White scales can be explained through the trait being codominant, and in the Miqo case if the teeth trait and iris trait are independant then is posible too. Now im puzzled if hyur skin color is considered an ethnia or highlanders are.

Interesting! I really hope the mixing and matching clan traits option becomes a thing soon (is this from the live letter or somewhere else?) in this case.

I have yet to see any Au Ra NPCs with both black and white scales, but it would be nice to see any indication of a canon mixed-clan Au Ra.i’m

Well Au Ra are basically humans who got voidsent DNA in their past somewhere. Makes sense that they'd be able to have children with hyur.

That’s a misconception born from internet telephone about Yoshi-P saying they used demonic motifs in addition to draconic ones when drafting Au Ra (and you can see that in the titles of the concept arts of you look them up; some say “dragon race” while others say “demonic”. Ultimately though, there’s literally no reference to possible voidsent relation in-game (which is the be all end all canon source); they’re only speculated (key word is “speculated”) to possibly be descended from dragons and even had experienced persecution from Ishgardians for looking draconic, but the real answer is “It Is A Mystery”. And as Mikko pointed out, the fact they exist on the First (and are called “Drahn”, no less like the game isn’t already throwing references they look like dragons everywhere, lol) makes it highly unlikely they have any relation at all to voidsent. They most likely are an Au Naturale (no pun intended) race.

Personally, I think it’s possible for them to be descended from offspring of any of the First Brood since they’ve been everywhere including Othard and they simply became more and more diluted over time. Or alternately they evolved from reptilian beings similar to Amal’jaa and whether through natural selection or crossbreeding with Hyur. they ended up the way they did.

All I can say is, they definitely are partly reptilian at least.
