I'm going on the assumption that we'd look more realistic, because otherwise the situation gets way too uncanny valley to think about.

Those are good points. I'm actually a bit of a klutz, so definitely during the adjustment period, I would be a walking disaster TwTIf this had ever happened to me I'd probably have a period at the start of cursing my tail repeatedly as it proceeded to get caught in things like closing doors since most humans don't have tails which will most likely hurt like hell... XD
I'll probably knock over a lot of things reaching across tables or counters due to never having boobs before as well. We'll just pray no cooking mishaps like on that Mrs. Doubtfire movie. :P
Now wondering about other things. Would my cat ears hear sounds human ears can't? Would the surface of my tongue be like a cat's? Would things taste differently? Would I be effected by catnip? Do I get a cat's low light/no light vision? Will I have a compulsive urge to push stuff off ledges and tables or have a fascination with laser pointers and cardboard boxes? lol


I wonder if Miqo'te would hate water as much as many cats do. And if they smell stronger after a heavy raining day ^^. Do Miqo'te cut their hairs on their tails, too?Now wondering about other things.

As an Au Ra, I will hear sounds very differently, thats for sure. And I m totally sure, I have to shred my skin from time to time. And yes, catching the tail in doors or somebody stepping on it might hurt as hell, especially because there is no protection (even as a tank). I wonder if those glowing rings in my eyes having some purpose.
Having those frontal horns, it may be impossible to kiss someone. Maybe i have to shorten them : (
Going to toilet with such a tail might be a challenge at first. And needless to say, I will NEVER start a relationship with someone bigger than a Midlander.

I would definately hope I got some glamour prisms, a green au ra would stick out like a sore thumb no matter what I did without them. At least I'd have magic so its a possibility?I have a counter question. What if you woke up as your character in your real life. No fanta, no way to change back? What do you do? Do you have a tail? Do you tell your friends? What about your job, life, partner? That's more interesting if I'm being honest. What would I do? Well seeing as I'm a miqo'te hiding the ears and tail would be my first try. Like I can explain away the eyes but the ears and tail.... not so much. And I can get around it for a day maybe. The hard part is currently where I live and everything.
that being the case, damn I look good. At least I can enjoy that before I leave my bedroom. Gender probably wouldn't be as much of an issue as having a tail and horns that hear differently. Scales could be interesting and moult, or it might not happen.
if I woke as my idea of the character without the ingame restrictions and/or mods then things would be much better:
A 7ft dragon girlmaybe futawhose got a small dash of viera somewhere to make her young forever while being fit and strong enough to cleave a man head to toe in one stroke.
I miss you concept art ;n;
The backwards horns at least would make me better off than some of the other auri. You poor sods with the fish fins



I don't think we'll be literal big cats xD. Tho the hearing and smelling might be improved as thats in lore already. And you would be knocking things over.. but thats cause you don't have a tail and if this happen you would have one. So yeah, cups, plates, blankets, hands, using it as a fan, maybe biting it, and wacks would all be possible.Now wondering about other things. Would my cat ears hear sounds human ears can't?

Nope I wouldn't change a thing. My characters looks is perfect fit for me.




If they're like cats, miqo'te will be very nearsighted and have diminished color vision. Even if they're not, will sunseekers have eyes like humans that rotate when you tilt your head but look super weird with their slit pupils still being vertical when they're laying down? Or will their eyes not be able to rotate in their skull and not look creepy when laying down on their side with the trade-off that they can't read at all that way? Then there's the trouble of having super sensitive ears being uncomfortable with anything touching them.I don't think we'll be literal big cats xD.

I think it would be really difficult to adjust for anyone originally human suddenly placed in the body of a miqo'te, au ra, viera, or hrothgar.



Are their ears that sensitive tho? I don't remember reading anything about that. It would be odd having them on the top of my head vs the sides... so none of my headphones would work. My airpods might still be good tho. Changing them would be a pain cause they be at the top now. I think the biggest thing is the tail and ears. And what do you mean by the eyes? Do you think the pupil should rotate like when laying down from going top to button to left to right? Do cats eyes do that? I dunno.If they're like cats, miqo'te will be very nearsighted and have diminished color vision.

I feel like the gentlest touch makes my cat flick her ears away and she definitely doesn't like them touched.Are their ears that sensitive tho? I don't remember reading anything about that.

As far as eyes go, we as humans have muscles in our eyes that rotate our eyes a bit to keep our eyes mostly same way when we tilt our heads. It's just harder to notice it because we have round pupils. I don't know to what degree it happens, just heard it as a "fun fact" a while back and I randomly remembered it and thought that would look creepy if you had slit pupils and your eyes stayed the same when your head tilted.
