    As a miqo'te player I can confirm that miqo'te definetely are stated by Emet, Hyth and others in Elpis as closely resembling Azem too, not surprising given miqo'te are really just humans with cat ears, eyes/fangs and a tail so those 'additions' can be simply ignored.. (I had a headcanon 'EnkiAzem loved cats and specialized in cat-themed creations... so hence why she subconsciously kept reincarnating post Sundering as a miqo'te/hrothgar or similar more than any other race).

    I think it's only lalafell, hrothgar, au ra and possibly roegadyn would not be stated as looking like Azem physically.

    Ahh, okay, that makes sense. Thanks! (And yes, roegadyn get a similar comment to lalafel.)

    It's still a level of erasure; the Ancients are just Ancients, they're none of the races we play and only sort of resemble a few of them. The WoL becoming Azem would, for every single one, require a change of physical appearance, and in a lot of cases it's a really drastic change.
