They wanted to be inclusive.

What? You wanted him to be called Non-Black? Non-Russian? Maybe Non-Biden? Like bro come on, stop looking too deep into the names lmao

They are the four fake disciples of Sanzang. Yellow Brow wanted to replace Sanzang to get the scripture, he's one of the few that doesn't want Sanzang flesh.
Non white = Bai Long Ma (White Dragon Horse). Technically he can be White Loong (the real horse not the fake Non white). White Loong is a cousin to the four Loong you fought in game.

It is likely a bad translation and I do think whoever they hired to do English translation should be fired as there’s some really terrible translations that sometimes are either too literal word for word or too interpretative that it completely changes the original intent of Chinese.

E.g. very first 2 lines at start of game cinematic prologue. The real Wukong says in Chinese; ‘I’ve seen to my master has returned safe, and so has the scriptures been returned…’ In English it’s “my master safe, scriptures sound…” like WTF if you’re English speaking only and coming across this gave first time…

The developer wanted to get us all by making us kill non-white and none-able.

You play with a monkey, the cast consists of mostly mythical beings of all kinds and body types. The women can be both beautiful and ugly at the same time. There's a fox waifu for the furries. And there's even a guy called Non-White. Also implied interspecies breeding at multiple occassions.

I have no idea why the wokies are complaining. This is by far the most diverse game ever.

Because that's literally his name in Chinese. 不白 (Bu Bai)
because in 《Journey to the West》,the monk TANG's mount is " white dragon horse".and the Yellow Brows is the monk TANG's condisciple. Yellow brows want to debate monk TANG,so his prentice called non-white.
other prentice's name is just like this.

I guess they bent the knee, they made sure their representation quotas were filled. Not so based as we thought apparently...

They're the Buddhist names of the original 4 spelt differently. They should just have used "woo" instead, so wookong instead of non void. They could even have done it like this - woozheng (false bajie), wookong (false wukong), woozheng (false sandy) and woobai (false horse of tang monk)

Would have made a heap more sense.

No able is a real g if you read his lore BTW. Yellowbrow was such a chithead to him.
