Im not trying to be racist, just asking: why is that that most paragons are blacks? even if they arent in real... I just dont get it. Is it becuz thats how they advertise the game?

It's because of the fact that Nightfall is African themed. And last time I checked, there are black people in Africa.

There are only a couple skin shades that are close to white in the NF character creator.

Same thing with most Assassins and Ritualists being Asians. Factions is Asian based and there are Asians in Asia.

Dark skin is a huge survival advantage in arid climates with high sunlight intensity.

Also, you have to admit that Paragon armor looks even more stunning against dark skin. A fair skinned Paragon doesn't quite have the same visual impact.
