So... I kind of wish there was an Au Ra clan, that was just “human”...

Have you tried Elezen?

I’m admittedly SUPER picky, but yeah, I feel like Elezen are too frail looking. Moreover, they aren’t just “thin”, but actually look a bit “out of shape” in many types of clothing, to me. I came from WoW originally, so I think I just prefer more muscular-looking characters, and the Au Ra have decent muscle but also good proportions. Roe and Hrothgar are muscular, but unusually top-heavy, which makes them seem a bit goofy, imo.

The game is full of little compromises like that, unfortunately - for example, if I were to pick a Highlander, I'd get a similar body type but I just don't like their facial picks (compared to the 2 very handsome ones Au Ra get); so much so that if I am playing a hyur, I'll overlook the build and play a derplander instead as they have much better versatility for designing a unique face, and I just like their animations better.

With Au Ra I like their level of muscularity, albeit I'd have liked it to go a bit further even. Still, it's good, just wish they could set their muscle tone via a slider... hopefully something to come in the future if/when the engine sees an upgrade.

Personally, I like their more "demonic" traits, but I can understand why some people might want to do without given how they interact with the armour, or simply if they don't envision their character possessing such traits.
