Nono I mean, cause her name is Komori - unless you plan on changing it. Not all Raen have to be passive. What about her close-knit group? she came over with the domans she said- but only the raen (that we know) Live with the Domans.

I think the point is as far as lore goes the Raen are from Doma and the Xaela roam the vast western steppe.

Pending potential name change when they release the information but this is Xharoa! She'll be my new main once 3.0 rolls around ^^.
Her clan are a bunch of slavers, coming to Eorzea to take prime pickings at all these new droves of individuals! Due to (potentially) the way their clan works, her and her cousin are somewhat warring over who takes to reigns of the clan once their elders are incapable.

The anime is strong in this one
Still haven't decided if DRG or DRK, and eye color might change. Also, did anyone else notice that the sclera of the Xaela is darker than the Raen?

*points to post* "Kiri Komori" is a "Nickname" one she is called by and introduces herself as most often. It was given to her by a Raen yes, one she later became good friends with cause she had a nice place to hide and work on the Garlean machine parts she found and hoarded on. Kiri Komori is a language name (because of the japanese parallels with Japan and Doma) as a Komorikiri aka Hikikomori. Thus named because the Raen thought it was funny to see a Xaela locking herself away to play with things.     "Kiri" enjoyed this name, it was sweet sounding, and most importantly she felt it was "Inventive" something that "Kiri" respects.     She does have a Xalea name, that could come out eventually. but she likes this name and will use it. For anyone who challenges her on her decision of name? She will fight them proudly >:E As one of the best fighters in she tribe, shes earned that right, even if most don't like it. 

As for her Raen friend... how could that be?! one may say to themselves.   And its true, "Kiri" did chase her away a few times, and even bunched the girl til she was bruised up and crying... Yet the Raen girl came back regardless and bravely. Another trait Kiri can respect. 

  "Tch, your so weak.. I guess it can't be helped.. whats this? a plum for me? You really shouldn't have..." *snatches the plum and eats eat watching the Raen girl* "HMPH! Your not much there bright scale, but you got guts... here, let me show you something."   
{Achievement Complete: "I probally should do this..." 10Ap title gined: Bridge Builder}

So that's the readers digest version of Kiri's nickname origin, which she will continue to defend with the strength of a quote "Free Sprited in nature" Xaela.

Initial thoughts: it's been mentioned plenty, but the horns being tied to faces makes me really sad, especially since it seems males get the short end of the stick in the face department....again. I love the rear-facing horns, but having it attached to Baron Von Frownyface of Constipation makes it far less appealing to me.

I hereby proclaim that this ManRa face forever be referred to from this day forth as "Sad Dragon Pants".

Other gripes: No variation in shading on scales. I know the colours of the scales are vital in identifying the subspecies, but there's no reason we couldn't at least have had some slight variation in shading. Raen scales have this really pasty, goat-like feeling which I suppose is the intention, but it could have been fixed with changes to the color saturation or having a darker shade so that they don't look like plastic. I haven't found an Au Ra male voice that suits what I'm looking for, either. 

The absurd anime hair styles were mentioned a while ago, although I admit to being a fan of the Kamui Gakupo hairstyle. The resemblance is so uncanny that I hesitate to say it's not a Vocaloid reference.

As a positive, I like the limbal rings feature. Eyes are a pretty small detail but having an extra distinction that adds contrast is always good.

Armor proportions seem pretty decent, although interesting to note that in this build, the Dragoon AF2 gear erases the Au Ra's tail.

I haven't played with the female customization extensively, but I score their customization options 2/10 because they only have one ponytail hairstyle. They earn an extra point for being aggressively adorable with the dreadlocks hairstyle, though.

Do we have a possible mate for Sad Dragon Pants? Mayhaps he will be upgraded to Occasionally Melancholy Dragon Pants?

Debating on some kind of craftsman or artisan character, which would fit with the Raen's sedentary nature. Blacksmith or something? I've never written a non-combat artisan character, so trying to make his interactions interesting would be a nice challenge.

Monster hunter? Seems a bit too run-of-the-mill, though the concept can be refreshed if the lore allows players to make their own Xaela tribes, which I expect they will.

And even though I never roleplay female characters, I made one anyway.

Still brainstorming here, buut...

Potential Raen:

Potential Xaela:

Definitely my male (I'm rolling one for each gender) will be a Xaela. I've settled with the look, but I'm undecided whether to make him in his 20s (Picture 1) or 30s (Picture 2)

To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.

"What makes a strong character is how they deal with their flaws, their fears, their turmoils, their troubles that get in the way. That's what makes them relatable." -- N.C.

Ah, that makes sense. I guess since both clans are based in Othard there would be intermingling.

Looking excellent so far guys! I'll decide on mine in a few hours likely.

I take my time when it comes to this, since I know I'll be changing my mind constantly.

The females look a lot better than I expected.


The eye customization is kinda cool. Sad the horns are tried to faces, but so far it's been pretty decent.

I fuckin' love their backs tho. The spinal scale is pretty badass. For once, I might not mind having a character that doesn't always display helms!

Edit: dicked around a bit more with the cc. Holy BALLS captain do they look good in armors. It's nearly a perfect silhouette for my personal tastes. I might have to make him one of them fancy Flames fellows just for the armor!

I tried to make the most aggressive, fiercest-looking female Raen I possibly could. She looks fine up close but ends up looking just bored and disinterested from a distance.

My opinion on the race has not changed. In fact, I think the face options are nice but are completely wasted because of the extraneous scales, horns, and tail. The tail that starts off thin and then goes fat in particular looks really fucking dumb and I'm wondering who in the world signed off on that.

Also no skin tone that is 100% matching the scales, so that's also a sad. Ho-hum.

Really, I just can't get past the cosplay scales and the horns. The horns, man! Just imagine how much of a hindrance they'd be in everyday life. Ugh. One of those things that's cool on paper but becomes really grating the more you think about it.

Edit: Just saw this on reddit:
