These are all golden and I'm not sure how I missed this thread before.
My kids tend to mostly be pretty chill about other races (or simply haven't had the opportunity to be racist in-game yet), but personally I'm fond of "knife-ears" for Elezen. I have a couple friends who refers to my Miqo'te as a "kit" or "catte", and while it bugged him at first it's started to sort of grow into a term of endearment. But when they poke fun by assigning him catlike traits (asking him if he purrs when he's happy, etc) he starts to get annoyed and fall into the usual "we aren't cats!" argument.

lol a few of my faves so far
"Oy, fluffbutt!"
"Damn gurl, you horny or just happy to see me?"
"Oh goodie, someone to go up on me!"
"wow, death by snu snu for Roes!"
Obviously you can see I'm no good with these lol.

Highwaycats use:
Hyur: pikes or blunts
Elezen: sharps
Lalafel: turnips
Au ra: skinks
Mi'qote: cats (duh)
Roegadyn: a very respectful "sir"

I love Strawberry as a slur against Hellsguard
Whoreson is a classic for all
When my character Mhiago watches fights, she gets pretty excited. One of my favorites she's belted out thus far: "Hit him in the pube covered flesh cherries!"

I must hang out with highwaycats a lot, or people who know highway cats, because I know these ones. Raeje gets called Skink a lot by her bard rock friends.Â
And of course my whole FC, which is primarily Mi'qote and Au Ra, usually call each other cattes all the time, and it's more of a term of endearment, rather than us being racist. Raeje gets called "green bean" a lot, because she's green. Wyta mostly gets called huge, because (s)he's so stinking tall. Being one of a minority group of Roe in the FC may seem hard for him, but it's actually not.He loves being different. If anyone is racist to him, they don't say it openly, because, well, he's a ROE. A Sea Wolf to be precise.
