fun concept: loose or firm ethnic associations for your character casts, I’m uncertain for some of mine for instance but i wanna get some stuff cemented for SEMI REALISTIC NON-ANIME PORTRAITS
idk if this was a call to action but I’m doing it anyway, I MAKE NO DEMANDS, just that ignorant little me did the majority of my character design in grade 7 or high school and everyone was So White, which I don’t imagine anymore
Char: pacific islander - Polynesian - Hawaiian, all baby me’s headcanons about him being white are WRONG
Ree: pacific islander - Polynesian - Samoan, rock climbing warrior queen who could destroy you all, secretly kiki’s #armgoals
Kiki: traditionally pale as hell, but in retrospect, not so much.. biracial --> pacific islander (Hawaiian) + birth mom’s white heritage
Katherine: also biracial, fam’s been on the island a long time and loved branching out the family tree, a nice rainbow wheel on her Ancestry.com dna results but largely a mix of Scottish, Greek, and Hawaiian
Tommy: the hell if he knows his background and refuses to go down that road because the potential of Pokemon Genes freaks him out, sandy blonde white child
Twins: mom’s melting pot + sperm donor’s lovely Irish genes, more fair-skinned than she is but freckled beyond belief
Braedon: white - Greek - immortality / undeadship has some transformative effects over the centuries (blue/silvering of the hair, slightly pointed ears, nothing as pronounced as spirits)
