Were you all surprised to see a Duskwight Elezen for the Moonfire Faire event?

I've always wondered... wouldn't a race that has primarily lived underground end up developing less skin pigment, not more? Always seemed weird that they're "meant" to have darker tones, when kinda any other cave dwelling (or deep sea, or general low/no light environment) will tend towards something closer to albino...

But, I'll be damned if every time I see it I don't regret going for a lighter tone. They always pull it off so well.

I see it as a nod to D&D's drow or dark anything really.

A lot of times you read about fairy tales where you go to this "dark forest" or cave or X area and you too are warped unnaturally. So... that could be what it is.

As to the OP's question. I... don't really care? Doesn't add much more Duskwight lore to the many many questions I'd like answered. I would be more surprised if we get a prominent Duskwight NPC in the MSQ.

My character is a Duskwight elezen. I chose ivory skin for a variety of reasons.
