Good call, there.

As for draconic beastmen, it's going to be interesting to see how they bring this in. The game seems to imply that the beast tribes we have now were once normal animals that were transformed, possibly by their gods. Might the Amal'jaa just be salamanders? The Ixal vultures? The Kobolds rodents? If each of these is true, it certainly holds possible that the dragons were gifted in some way, as well.

That part is also a little ambiguous though - the beast tribes might have just been made more... mean... by the primals, lol.
Yeah definitely a bit more mean, Amalj'aa and Ixali use to trade with humans. Seems like Sahagins were always at odds with Limsa and Leviathan did appear around the same time as Ifrit, so we could assume it made them bolder. But they do seem to have a human contingent, I forget what they're called, but its the people that work for the Sahagins. Sylphs may have their Primal but they happily work with the Gridanians, but Sylphs also seem less 'beastish.' Don't really remember any instances, besides Aleport Hamlet, to where Kobolds openly attacked people except if they wandered into their mines. It'll be interesting to hear where these Gigas (concept pdfs) come from. If Dravnians are going to be a new Beastmen Tribe and they worship Bahamut, I guess we could say we might be fighting them soon.
