Elezen are much more beautiful than Miqo'te or Au-Ra

[Arrhin]

BAHAHAHAHAHHA!!! As miqo'te I LOVE THIS

[Varathael]

Elezen have a horrific history of bigotry, even in Gridania. Look only to how the Wildwoods treat Duskwights in Gridania.

As for Miqo'te polyamory, that's only for Seekers of the Sub

The main reason Elezen aren't popular is their awful proportions (I can't say I blame anyone for this), and I say this as an Elezen myself for over 6 years now.

I actually love the proportions, for the most part. I think Elezen necks are elegant. I just wish they had slightly larger heads.

Thanks for the post. It's hilarious. The part about Miqo'te having questionable loyalty and and being involved in highly illegal professions made me laugh hard. The bit about Au Ra being predisposed to violent aggression and acts of barbarianism was great too.

Hopefully nobody takes it too seriously. At the end of the day, all the races are amazing and the best part is that there's something for everyone.

It is cannon that they live in groups dominated by one Nunh.

Only Seekers live in patriarchal tribes with the Nunh setup. Keepers, of which your example image is, do not. It's the use of "polyamorous" as an insult/downside that I have a problem with. As far as "unsavory or illegal occupations" you forget that Duskwight Elezen are also notorious for poaching in the Shroud, as though Ishgard isn't rife with class genocide, and as if Gridania isn't rife with racism. For your point about Au Ra kidnapping, that is a single tribe of Xaela Au Ra on the Steppe that is known for that, not the entire race, and did you forget an Ishgardian Elezen kidnapped a Chocobo's egg early in ARR because he thought he was entitled to it by merit of being Ishgardian?

Don't point out the faults of other races if you can't objectively point out the faults of your favorite race. As I said, there's nothing wrong with liking Elezen most of all, but your arguments against Miqo'te and Au Ra are inane, pedantic, and just downright incorrect. Maybe learn to lift people up instead of tearing people down. I promise you'll find it more fulfilling.

I think some might be, I enjoyed it. Inflammatory, yet tongue in cheek, I had a laugh that I really needed today.

Seekers of the Sun. Blasted phone sent post before I was finished.

The Seekers also live in harsh environments where they need strong and healthy individuals to ensure continued survival.

But can elezen do this? *Mira proceeds to wiggle her ears*

This mainly. I do have an elezen alt on a JP server though and I do like her and she is pretty but the proportions are a little odd, am not very used to it, but may also be because my irl hight is that of an Au Ra / Miqo'te / shorter Midlander Hyur ???

[Arrhin]

My main issue with their proportions is that they limit me in my glamours. A lot of pieces look downright horrible on Elezen (especially the shoulders) and I can't use them even though they look pretty neat on other races.

This goes both ways though. My SO is Elezen, and some of the stuff they glam looks amazing but when I try it on I resemble a 12 year old girl trying on my Mums clothes...

Problem is you're showing a Keeper. Here's some lore for you to read lmao
"In contrast to the Seekers of the Sun with their male-dominated tribes and harems, the fundamental unit of Keeper of the Moon society is the family, centered around a strong mother figure and her children. Keepers are known to form small communities composed of two or three families who hunt together."

It's both... but this is what happens when you're race is 95% female, 5% male. Either each male has multiple female partners just to make sure enough males are born for the race to survive... or the race dies off entirely.
