#I don't think Auri scales are the exact answer as she's more amphibious than lizardy

[elizabethrobertajones]

I am sad that we don't have the massive old people scales like Temulun or the Oronir storyteller for our WoLs. Let me give the men the scale porn stachs! And massive scales for all Au Ra!

Au Ra getting more and more scaled as they get older until Grandma is just chilling halfway up a warm brick wall :D

#ffxiv #this reminded me I have an au ra wol and she is based on an OC who I gave scales #I could somehow never visualise exactly how they'd work #I don't think Auri scales are the exact answer as she's more amphibious than lizardy #(mermaid newt lady :3) #but it's definitely been a big help just in letting my imagination take wild swings with it #rather than trying to imagine ~conventionally attractive~ little splatters of scales like freckles at the corners of her eyes or whatever #you know like sexy low budget sci fi scaled women often end up like :P #it's such a process allowing your brain to be weird when you're actually quite a normcore person and want to sit at the weird kid table #the weird kids have been good to me I should be allowed to be one and then I'm like here's my OC she's so weird #and then I see everyone else's OCs and I've drawn Jane From Next Door #hahahaha
