This is my Necro - I fashioned her after Storm. I think she looks good, but I've had some players make racial slurs against her. I was surprised at that.

I can't really say if he looks African American or not. But he is black and has corn rows. Take a look at the one and the only, Fungus Amongus!

I noticed that some of the character faces definately look better with darker skin tones that the lighter ones. This is especially true with the new ch2 faces. When I was looking at some of the default choices for skin tone, I was thinking that they didn't look great, but when I started choosing the others, it was "Wow!"

Sorry I didn't take any good pics, but when Ch2 comes back we'll all get the chance to play some more with them.

Those necros with the darker skin tone and white/very light hair look very cool. Lalita's one does look very Storm

Necros and Monks are the only chars (so far) that can have tattoo/scar "armour". I think the upcoming Ritualist in Chapter 2 might have some too.

tattoo are armors, and they are mainly for necromancer and monks. Each of them have about 2-3 tatoo sets.

I thought African looking characters were pretty cool. Although I wish they give us more solid looking skins and muscle features.

It seem to be ArenaNet's plan to have a chapter for each culture of Earth.

Right now we have the European/Native North+South America and Gothic/Nomad East Asia. I assume we will eventually see South Asia, Africa, etc.

Zebra skins? Would be awesome in my opinion.

Funny you should ask that. I just got the 8k tattoo set for Usha today, I'm not sure what the pattern is exactly...like a barbed wire with flowers maybe? Anyways you can't dye the bikini top and bottoms, and the only thing dye does affect is the little bits of color in the tat. Unlike monk tats which change color totally. Anyways here is the 8k tatts.

That's cool. The reason I made my warrior african was because I really felt that in a game that offers players to be from a different heritage from everyone else is cool! And that's one thing that has always bothered me.. everyone makes White FEMALE characters. I'm like.. guys you are retarded. Upon making my character I see maybe once a week another black character online. I think everyone should have 1 black character out of their 4 just to give the game some color, because when you're in a city 99.9% of the time.. the whole population consists of half naked dancing white females, now where is this really ever practical?
