Can we please have at least 1 female Au Ra to accompany the WoL on their adventures?

[Yukimin]

It would only be fair to add at least one or two to accompany the WoL on their adventures. That, and we could use having new characters as they scions surely already overstayed their welcome. So much for wanting a new adventures and being baited into thinking the scions were all going their separate ways... but nope. Everyone's together again in the following patch!

Anyway, I make my point that having a Fem Au Ra NPC would be quite at this point since they barely get representation in the story as well for being one of the most played race and gender combination. I'd extend the request to have a Fem Keeper of the Moon to accompany the WoL as well.
Because we've had, for the longest time:
4 Elezen
3 Midlanders
3 Lalafells
2 Miqo'te

I think we're all tired of the same Sharlayan smartasses every single MSQ breathing on our neck.

Best we can give you is an Au Ra educated in Sharlayan like Mikoto, take it or leave

[Vandso]

Yugiri used to be that person

[Bunnycake]

Yugiri used to be that person

I can't believe OP forgot about her

[Yukimin]

Yugiri used to be that person

For how long that even was? Just the short Doman arc? A couple of quests in ARR and HW? I'd like a long-term Au Ra party member who wants to adventure *with* the WoL. Like the twins.

I'm just thinking about how many interesting characters we've had join the scions only for them to get kinda flanderized and turned into milquetoast boring versions of the people I liked. I thought Graha was cool, interesting, and tragic when he was the crystal wizard, but now he's just an irritating fanboy. Estinien was mysterious and cool when he was a brooding dragoon with a hateboner for dragons, but now he's wearing button-up tops and struggling to buy things at the market. Those moments were funny, don't get me wrong, but I'm not interested in that character anymore like I used to be.

I get monkey paw vibes from this request. Like they'll give us Yugiri as a scion and then iron out all her internal conflicts and just make her an uninteresting yshtola clone or something.

That's why you RP and just come up with your own headcanon and ignore the story

[Tehmon]

As you see in the list you made, there are a lot of different races that haven't gotten to be featured as part on the WoL's inner circle. I don't think female aura should be in any priority in this case, especially when Yugiri exists.

I don't really get this. Is it that the characters have been shown to be more than just the single detail that was cool? I enjoyed both Estinien and Graha before they got more fleshed out and enjoy them both more now that I have a better idea of who they are underneath all the edgyness.

To be honest at this point I just want new, grounded and relatable characters like Ardbert's companions. Don't get me wrong, I'm just tired of seeing the same faces all over and I can already predict what they'll say. The proposed new Au Ra NPC doesn't even need to be Yugiri, I'd rather have someone new really. Preferably Au Ra, Roe, Viera maybe a Highlander. And it doesn't help that practically every single Scion character already concluded their stories and Square Enix has no balls to threaten their lives or make them suffer.
