Justifying Hunter's Looks

[Hunter Wolf]

So how would you describe the situation where you make Hunter look a person of color as Sarah is white and she and Lilith are blood relatives (purposely called out as not knowing what she looks like pre soul selling for this exact reason ) not criticizing the game for adding poc options just curious if lore reason your aunt looking pale white and you very dark skinned

Maybe the dad?

[ingosupercute]

I'd argue it's a gameplay compromise so the players won't complain about not being able to change the looks of their hunter.

[Mysteria]

If I understood correctly from talking to blade, Hunter is like half demon. There’s no reason Hunter would have to abide by human genetics.

The dad is completely absent from the game so that makes sense

People general have two parents that can have have vastly different ancestry.

There's a reason you never see the father. Also, a child can have two white parents and still be of color if their near ancestors were also of color.

Alternative explanation: it's a freaking video game based on comic books, with alternate realities and a protagonist who knows what a car is because they somehow dreamed of them in their death/sleep. Just roll with it.

For those Hunters of black skin: Lillith did the Micheal Jackson thing. Its simplier to ignore Lilliths skin, but if you need an explanation, might as well use the above.

[Bonebreaker]

You know that you can adjust the skin color right?

Your mom is mixed race, and so is your father. There, I solved that great ethical roleplay dilemma for you. You have to be really, really slow to actually care about roleplaying and not be able to figure that out.

Oh wait...you were just making a racist post, or trolling weren't you.

[Black Hammer]

I can't make Hunter green by default, so you can't easily match Lilith.

[adlibrium]

Maybe Sarah's has a different father than Lilith or could possibly be adopted as well but I'm not far enough in to the story.

Dark Magic makes you Dark Skinned.

I didn't mean to sound racist just was curious how to justify it

There is a far shorter post here that is indirectly racist...

If it's a serious question, then:

1. We don't know what the father looked like.
2. We barely know what Lilith looks like when magic isn't involved.
3. The Hunter is on so much weird sauce (dead, revived, not entirely human to begin with, bonus points for exposure to other magic) there's a decent chance they don't even look the same
4. People of the exact same mixed race can have huge variation in skin tone. Especially if you get more or less sun; when I was a teen and worked outside, I looked Arab as could be. A decade of working indoors and at night, and I'm pasty as hell. Meanwhile my sister was always lighter than me, and my brother always a little darker.
5. The apple can fall surprisingly far from the tree, since a kid may take after a grandparent much more than either of their immediate parents.
