: If she could be de-canonized then I would be happy. : What would people accept? The art here has various depictions of female : Elites. : They tend to be smaller than the males, have feminine hips, and some have : clothes over were their breasts might be. : The smaller size suggests that the males are more aggressive and may compete : for females. This may explain why we don't see female Elites on the front : lines. It fits with the games. It is also familiar and expected if we : think of Elites as being just like us. : The child bearing hips suggests that they produce young through the pelvic : canal, these young are either large eggs or have big heads. The images are : beautiful and look feminine but do we want Elites to be this ordinary? : The strips over the breast areas just avoids the question: are Elites mammals : or not? : My preference is for Elites to be less like us but the Hunters are alien and, : perhaps, the Drones too, to a lesser extent. : What do people think? Do you care? Are Elites alien enough? Do they need to : be fairly human for you to relate to them? Would you accept a female : character that wasn't so anthropomorphic? : How alien could Elites be? : They are influenced by Geiger's alien and the Predator alien; they are a : fusion of the two. I really would like to see some canon taxonomy at least-- what kind of living thing are they? : If their biology followed then they may reproduce like the Ichneumonidae; : they may inject their eggs into paralyzed hosts or they lay eggs on them : and then the larvae burrow in and eat their hosts from the inside. : Could you still relate to Elites if they reproduced this way? This seems pretty weird and... freaky, and... strange, and... kind of creepy, but you know what? If we can tell each other jokes I think we can relate.
