Some planet sounds like Chinese or Japanese but that's about it...

I haven't seen any of them yet.

Hire someone if you can't draw one! Please?

Unless they're all dead somehow in the past. :innocent:

Many of the NPCs on Feros are obviously Asians.

Isn't "orientals" an offensive term?

How can OP be that concerned and still use offensive terminology?

It would make more sense to have Asians as they will no doubt form the most powerful nations and most populous in the future (India, China, Anime-Japan)

Uh, hello? How insensitive can you be?! We don't call people "orientals" these days. It's Chinamen.

American Heritage Book of English says....



It is worth remembering, though, that Oriental is not an ethnic slur to be avoided in all situations. It is most objectionable in contemporary contexts and when used as a noun, as in the appointment of an Oriental to head the commission. In these cases Asian (or a more specific term such as Vietnamese, Korean, or Asian American, if appropriate) is the only acceptable term. But in certain historical contexts, or when its exotic connotations are integral to the topic, Oriental remains a useful term.

Oriental is not the preferred nomenclature.



Asian Americans, please.

They definitley are present. Good reason for why they're not common is that we all meshed into some uniform brown color some time in the future. Then we went into cold dark space, and became white.



*Shudders.* Become white.
