Racial emotes
Zeheia
Immortal
After our recent implementation of some Arborean-specific emotes, I've noted that we have very few racial emotes. Being the magnanimous purple Celani that I am, I've decided to try to flesh that category out a bit. So, please bombard this thread with your ideas for race-specific emotes. I make zero guarantees that they will all be used, but we will definitely look through them and strongly consider adding in some good ones!

Very much plain and human, they are standing here doing human things, mostly humanely.
