I apologize...I forgot that people can't have fun on these forums.
I also forgot that it's a venial sin to suggest anything.

The whole concept that obviously was missed is...IF you could and it would RETCON the racial Lore so it would make sense.

Yoshida even said that we won't get Veira or similar races because they would be Miq'ote but with bunny features.
Which made me think...why not just make Miq'ote into an animal race?

I apologize for wanting to have a for fun conversation.
