Female Hrothgar as a playable race. Show your support!

It's coming and they said it is the last race they're doing for now which I feel is a shame but oh well. I never would've likely seen the Yuke race in this game anyway.

Correction, "This is 'Likely' to be our last races put into the game."
ANd, the Yuke CAN still put put into the game...just...most likely as NPCs like alot of other races from past FF games put into this game.

Complete with Tribe quests. Hopefully in the same expansion we also get Burmecians, since having multiple beastial races added as NPCs would be nice.

Oooh yes, Burmecians are amazing guys! Once upon a time, when I was just starting to play, had an assumption that Qiqirn is their local analogue. But still... still I would like to see them for real!

I would like to change the subject of appearance for a bit. I do feel like this is one of the main reasons for playing a race, but another important one is the animations!
What kind of animations would people like to see female Hrothgar have? I personally love the male ones, I think they represent a nice balance of adorable and fierce with a side of goofiness.
One of my favourite emotes that male Hrothgar have is the /blush I think it looks absolutely adorable! I do wonder in the context of their own species how would the /blowkiss emote from a female Hrothgar possibly look to create such a reaction? As well as how would their /blush look like in the context of the male /blowkiss?
What about their sitting poses? We know that all races got new sitting poses in 6.3. But my favourite sitting pose for the males is one of the OG, I am referring to the teddy bear sitting position! Do you guys think that the females will have something similar?
Or how about the new sleeping/waking-up animations? I think it would be so adorable if they literally take a similar pose to a sleeping lioness.

What about the overall feel of the animations themselves? For example, female Highlanders are very energetic, female Miquo'te have very cute and girly emotes, female Au'ra are more reserved and female Viera are more mannered. Do you guys think that the female Hrothgar will have very regal emotes or do you think they would subvert our expectations and make them more goofy and relaxed?
Also, SE can we get a "Hiss" emote? We need it! ... for lore reasons, of course!

I would love to hear what you think. We are so close I can barely contain my excitement!

BTW I am aware that the emotes are most likely already decided and probably done. But it is fun to speculate!

Personally I would love if they were fairly stoic but with a feral edge that comes out sometimes. Going off of the art from the previous page I imagine them as being calm and cool under pressure as a counterpart to the males being hotheaded and goofy, but for some animations you'd see their bestial side shine through with a snarl or something.

Hrothgar men are protectors and women are queens. Possible queens. I'm really interested in how exactly they will be presented to the community, but believe and hope in the best possible way. After all, devs had time to think about their lines, and the source for that. Bozja's story is a good part, and don't forget about the creativity of the players!
In my imagination, about the same as described by Cid, it is quite vividly drawn:

You've probably seen this here before, but why not, after all... Great ideas by Reddit artist Fullmime!
My absolute favorite is the one on the left. Can't call myself a fan of naked cat faces a la Ferres from AA. But the one on the left is good enough - still more refined than the man's face, but fully in keeping with the Hrothgar as a race.
