MSQ ending spoilerIt does however raise the question of why the MSQ Au Ra used a cloak instead of using glamour.

I'm actually one of Seren's "Au Ra" friends in question she's getting to wait on. xP

For the most part, I've planned on just waiting to enter the IC scene all together and have been simply leveling the character as an Elezen until Heavensward. He would, nonetheless, never go through a Fantasia in an IC capacity because he wouldn't exist in the RPC until he was a full-fledged Au Ra.

After seeing the extensive RP scene in game though and having caught wind of this "Au Ra and Glamours" trend, it had occurred to me to go ahead and start playing the character as incognito (just a very unconvincing Elezen.) But like Seren, I wasn't yet convinced of how believable or acceptable that would be (even to myself). That said-- we've got a hankering to start RPing ASAP, so we'll see if we can exercise enough patience to wait.

In regards to the MSQ though...
That is precisely one of the reasons I started to really shy away from the glamour concept, myself. If Yuigiri felt the need to conceal her appearance via hood/etc, then why wouldn't she have simply used a glamour? If they were so widely available and used, then it would seem a much more effective means of hiding her race. While I won't negate or poo-poo on anyone else's choice to use this fan-lore, I'm not real sure it's something I'll personally do.
