    Hummingways - The best choice for the next playable race

    This might be early as we got a new race just recently, but the design of the Au Ra sparked some controversy, and a sizeable group of the palyer base is already looking at possible desings for a new race.
    There are many different ideas regarding what the new race should be like. Less human looking are requested by some in the west, but as far as we know, the japanese player base wants Square Enix to stick to cute races.
    We obviously need a compromise, and I have found it. The Hummingways.

    The Hummingways are basically a cross between Lalafell and Vieras with full body hair. They are as far from humans (hyur) as humanoids can get. And you bet they are cute.
    Would they fit the lore? Well, let's ask our dear friend Nero tol Skaeva, who executed an Eorzean spy named Codename Hummingway. The answer is an obvious yes.
    Hummingways also have several advantages compared to moogles.
    1) They don't fly, so animations are that more easy.
    2) They are fully clothed, while moogles only equip head, main hand and offhand gear.
    3) Not many are allowed to see moogles.
    4) Every interaction with moogles in game assumes that you are not one.
    5) Moogles have a primal, which classifies them as a beast tribe. No known primals exists for Hummingways
    6) Both Moogle clans hail from places on Aldernard. The Adventurer is an outsider.

    What do you think?
