    Real Talk: Highlanders need eyebrows

    I'm sure this has been mentioned before. I don't know if there was ever an official response, but if not, it's long overdue.

    Highlanders NEED eyebrows. Nothing causes someone to say, "he looks a little off, but I can't quite put my finger on it..." like missing eyebrows.

    I mean, just take a look at these celebrities: http://celebswithnoeyebrows.com/

    For goodness sake, Au Ra have the option to choose yes or no to eyebrows! I mean, of course we can use face paint to have pseudo-brows, but then we end up like this: http://i.imgur.com/Wh9MTIW.gif

    In the end, Highlander Hyur is my favorite race. I'm sure everyone has something they don't like about their race, but nothing as drastic as missing eyebrows.

    Please, for the sake of all that is good in the world, add an eyebrow option to Highlanders.

    Pretty sure Highlanders are missing eyebrows cause lore.

    Just out of curiosity, where in lore does it say "and Highlander Hyurs shall never have eyebrows... not since the accident."? In all seriousness, I'm interested to hear why, if that is the case.

    No idea. It's just the reason that's always thrown around when people ask about it. I tried googling it to see if I could find this elusive bit of lore, but all I find is thread upon thread upon thread of people asking to have them, lol.

    I'd assume it's some kind of cultural thing to shave them off or something, maybe?

    It was at the lore panel during one of the Fan Festivals, really lame reason though regardless. Probably another one of those, "We can't cram anything more into the character creation because memory and reasons." That they decided to hide behind lore. :l

    Even though they tried to call lore on this one, I don't buy it. Female highlanders have eyebrows, so that proves that all highlanders don't shave their eyebrows. So naturally, not every male highlander would shave their eyebrows either.

    I'd have to agree. As a gay guy, the race that most appeals to my type-of-guy is just...creepy with their tiny eyes and lack of eyebrows. x.X

    I'm sure with Au Ra having the option now, it couldn't be hard to add the same thing to Highlander. Hell, I'd pay for a fantasia just to change it - that is unless it's in the aesthetician.
