I originally had Lorelei with darker skin, but then Matt noted that the [[Ulan]] was essentially a taiga, so I adjusted for the skin tone given the geographical shift and the fact that Lorelei was hidden away for much of her life. Once we begin adventuring, future images of Mahina will reflect the genetic predisposition towards melanin production and hence supply her with a darker skin tone.		:: I had the understanding that Moon Children were akin to Egyptians, and hence why it took me so long to find models with both traditional Egyptian and Asian features.

	::: You're not wrong. The Moon Children are the reminiscent of a long-extinct Egypt-like civilization that had God-Kings and Pyramids and all of that. They were displaced from their prominence by the refugees that one day would become the Petarans. The remainder of this culture was forced from the productive coasts into the relatively hostile interior and over that time lost a lot of their culture slowly becoming the bedouin nomads Petara knows today. As for what your character looks like, that's all you and I won't lose sleep over it. I'm much more concerned with existing institutions and structures blending in with existing ones, and the best way to do that is generate discussion and content in that order. FWiW, the Far East analogue in this world is, of course, the Lost.		::: You're not wrong.
