Raen Or Xaela

[Zumi]

Raen cause white scales are pretty. I like my cute looking lizard girl.

[Dualblade]

I like both, but skew more towards Xaela in the end. I like the darker scales, and from an "reason to adventure" standpoint it seems more likely to be more Xaela leaving their "home" to strike out on their own to do so compared to the Raens.

[Zomkei]

Xaela because I like their naming conventions and their color schemes better. I prefer the darker scales and the skintones. Their lore also seems a bit more interesting to me :thinking:.

[Vallhallix]

Never got why people call them reptiles or lizards lol. They're not cold blooded and pretty much nothing about them is reptile like besides scales, which look like a more hardened bone-like structure than actual scales.

Anyway Raen, they look more normal and aesthestic, Male Xaela just look demonic, it would fit my character if I wanted to play as a super edgelord dark knight, female Xaela are much better than the male Xaela imo. Raen scales look more gold to me in-game, and it's beautiful on tanner Raen like meself.

[Dijana]

I'm always torn on this. I was raen first, then switched to xaela, then went back to raen. I like the xaela lore more than raen, but I like the raen appearance more for my character because I like how the white horns and tail contrast with my darker hair and eyes (although I dont like how the scales on the body contrast with my tanned skin).

Character/RP wise I just say Dijana is a mixed breed(?) with a raen mother and a xaela father.

[Korbash]

From their lore I prefer the Raen and their adventurous side, their adaptability, their openness, and their desire for tranquility It's the same with Elezen, I prefer the Wildwood for the same reasons. Lookwise, I prefer Raen.

And no, I have NO desire to switch from my Elezen to Au ra.

[Rilasha]

I prefer the Raen. I really like the lighter scales on Au Ra, though plenty of artwork makes me like both types...

[phishstix]

Xaela. Their lore is miles more interesting, and I hope to learn more about them in SB. And the diversity of their tribes is amazing.

[xhizux]

Xaela! I like their lore a lot and they look more how i imagined the Au'Ra. Raen are nice but i am pretty bad in designing them because of their colourpalett.
Au'Ra are really my favourite race so far.

[Valenth]

On my male Au Ra I prefer Xaela, though I wish I could get the same eye-white and lack of red lines as a Raen on him. I generally find their scales a bit too orange coloured, I would prefer if I could have Xaela scale colour with the guy below.



On my female Au Ra I gravitate towards Raen, it has something very soothing and their scales are a shade or two lighter than the male counterparts.



Though her as Xaela fits perfectly with the DRG AF2 armor. It's almost an extension of her skin and scales.



I would be all for having a scale colour slider! Or having the horns and face separated. But knowing Au Ra are already at the max of customisation options it probably means we'd lose something else in return.
