For the record, I'm also totally on board with Hrothgar getting more of a FFX Ronzo "look" to them. I feel like that would be more appropriate for "The Lost" clan, given it sure seems like they're supposed to be that.

As far as there being any kind of issue with them having both canine and feline "counterparts", you could totally chalk those differences up to being distant cousins. All playable races are theoretically descended from the Ancients, so it's unlikely the Hrothgar are SPECIFICALLY related to cats anyways, so some appearing more canine would surely make just as much sense.

Beyond that, I'd probably give them proper "fur" to cover their whole bodies, not just their shoulders and forearms. Maybe longer, more wild-looking braids and whatnot for their "hair", or even just mohawks, but just more savage-looking in general?
