Pointy Ears: Yes, for the eldrae. Just at the tip, and no larger than human ears on net, because – with all due respect to World of Warcraft, et. al., fans, those giant freakin’ ears look completely ludicrous.
The dar-bandal, of course, have pointy ears too. They’re canids. Other species audio sensors may, and indeed do, vary.
