Male Au Ra

It also clearly states on the Heavensward teaser site that they're not related to dragons and cite various examples as to why they're not.

No, it simply states there is in-world debate. It does not say if they actually are related or not; just that it is disputed.

Personally though, I'ma call them peiste people and peiste-kin.

There is the option to remove all scales. It's under Race > Elezen.

I didn't insult anyone, so no clue what you mean. They look dumb as hell. That's my opinion (seriously, has it gotten to the point where I need to add "this is my opinion" to every post?). You don't have to agree with it. Look at me, partly defining a word!

You're right, its your opinion and mine is that lalafells look dumb as hell but don't get offended its just my opinion.

You just cannot handle their manliness, longer scale beard options please! ....just thinking wouldn't it be amazing if all the people with their individual au ra hates i dunno.. got together and made like.. one huuuge mega thread to vent all their individual hate? @.@ the topic space that would open up at this point.. wow
