It never really struck me until now but why aren't black people represented in Dragon Age? You have white people, latinos (if you count Zevran), and various other ethnicities based on the accents of the people voicing them, but there isn't a single black person on this game.

It's pretty ridiculous to make a male human and have a white mother and father as a black man/woman. I mean homosexuals are represented on this game yet black people are completely forgotten.

I would love for someone associated with the lore of Dragon Age to explain or shed some insight as to what this is.

I'm pretty sure Awakenings will be the same way.

You'll find dark-skinned people in the nation of Rivain, which is quite a ways off to the north. This far south those of Rivaini descent (like Duncan, though he is half-Rivaini) are fairly rare. Ferelden is analogous to medieval England, which it is a fictionalized version of.

Could we have included more ethnicities? Certainly -- but our intent was to create an internally consistent setting, not to reflect ethnic diversity as it's found in our own world in modern times. You can create whatever appearance you wish (I'll point out you can make your character look old, as well, despite the assumption within the game that you are young) though it's been mentioned before that we might have considered making in-game parents match skin tone/hair color. It's something we'll keep in mind as a possibility for the future.

Hope that answers your concern.
