I think you mean the latter?
Sorry for being unclear, I meant the former. If you kill off a character and fantasia them into a new Au Ra then that would be considered new. I was asking because I heard that many people were deciding that their characters were Au Ra all along or ICly became one through fantasia-styled means - which is fine, but I'd hate to think that this was the case for a significant portion of the community since it would be a bit like the miqo'te situation and how there seem to be so few, tribals around. Non-tribals are vital and great to see but sadly it ended up feeling as though the actual lore got neglected ICly or OOCly(and by that I mean it didn't garner a lot of interest).
Lore makes things exciting so I'd feel pretty disappointed if there where a handful of people conforming to whatever lore is thrown out for the Au Ra and then everyone else is practically indistinguishable from any other person outside of appearances.
Anyways, that's merely the reason. Let's not start talking about miqo'te again, haha.
Edit:
OP has been modified. I hope it reads more clearly now!
Characters: Andre Winter (Hy'ur) / K'nahli Yohko (Miqo'te)
