    It hasn't though. That's what most of this debate is about. It makes sense for them to be draconic/dragonkin of some sort, but it has never been officially stated. We will probably get some closure either next week, when Yugiri reveals her face or when the benchmark comes out/they finally update that darn website.

    Thinking about it, I just realized that we really have no idea where the playable Au Ra are coming from. They didn't all come with Yugiri from Doma, or we would have seen more hooded people running around. This is a crazy idea, but what if the Au Ra are already IN Ishgard? Like, the clergy have known about them since back when Shiva was around, and they have secretly been a part of Ishgard society and culture for a while. While that's a real longshot, the fact that Ishgard is closed off from the rest of the world might hide their presence, and it would explain why they are suddenly abundant in heavensward.

    It's kind of like in a movie when you find out the leaders of the government are all vampires, or that the government has been silently tolerating aliens living among us. The racist Ishgardians have been doing foul things due to evil influence, the dragons begin a new war in retaliation, and only the hidden half-breeds in the city are able to rise up and stop the fighting.

    Came here to say this
    Yugiri might have some answers for us. Why Au'Ra are in Othard and where did they come from ?

    I love the click bait form of a title, it's really like I'm on facebook or Kotaku.

    No
    first, Shiva lived not longer than 1500 years in the past. Too short of a time to bring out a whole race.
    second, Odin met an Au Ra before Ishgard existed (he have his sword from an Au Ra)
    third, the Au Ra come from another continent and have no connection to Dravania.

    If i rember it right, Yugiri said they (she and the other Domans around her) are the first group of refugees and that more are coming. It can be that she is just the only Au Ra in the first group and that the other Au Ras are still on the refugee ships.
