Ok.. so this bothers me. I really wanted to make a black character in tera. But its near impossible. There are 1000000u different colors for white skin or asian and even latin skin. But almost none for black skin.
also the only way to make a black character is by choosing humans.
which the males loook too bulky.
why cant elves and elin be black..
also the preset faces are all white. Its reallu hard to make etnic characters.
plz tera change this. It could be the reason i choose gw2 over this game because i can really build a character i can relate to.

I made a black female castanic. They just need more customizations options all together.

They westernized it. The west is run by the white devi... oh wait.

Yes, there should be a lot more options IMO.

what you mean? It's perfectly possible to make a black human.

Now if you want a black HIGH ELF, that wouldn't make any sense at all, since they're based on the classical fantasy elf, which is in turn loosely based on celtic (European) myths, a people with no contact whatoever with Africa.

And no, I'm not racist.

Quoted from OP o.o you must have mis-read.

Why do elves and elin have to have the same range of skin colors as humans? I know this will come as a shock, but they are not real races, and thus the game designers can do what they want with skin color.

I would like more dark skin options and "ethnic" features across the board really...

So you have my approval*hugs you to enforce the approval*


Also I would like for Amani females to have the extreme hues that Amani males have for their skin.
