The thin nose is the feature of Caucasians. Indians also retain some Caucasian features. Khazakstanis have more Slavic/Mongoloid features than Caucasian, and you can tell that from the prominent cheekbones and eye shape. Koreans, Thais, Chinese and Japanese all stem from the Slavic peoples ancient migrations east and south east.<br/><br/>I thought Aborigines were an onwards SE migration from these people and Oceania and the Pacific Islanders a further eastward migration still.<br/><br/>North American Indians are a further migration of Slavic/Mongoloid types across the Alaskan land-bridge and finally South American Indians are the furthest travelled of all.<br/><br/>@ Vin - I was a teeny bit annoyed, because it was an IC comment which means the answer doesn't need to be justified, its a feature of Georges' character (he's a reverse racist and likes to abuse both tiny women and white women so a petite Japanese or Thai is his perfect victim). And yes, that simple NPC grew 'character features' as I was writing the post, I had no idea they were there until I'd finished it, but there you go, these things tend to pop up on the fly sometimes.<br/>A typical Slav, exactly what I'd expect of a Russian.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>No prob, Haibane.  It doesn't need to be justified IC, but I was curious about it OOC.  He was a cool NPC, and I look forward to seeing him abuse Titty and Snobby some more!  I was tempted to make some NPCs for just that purpose, but I'm aware Chrystal doesn't want to RP with males and you did it better than I would have anyway.<br/><br/>I did some googling and read that Japanese may consider themselves white because they identify (historically and economically) more with Europe than with the rest of Asia.<br/><br/>(edit: Deleted a map image in the Galaxy description)
