Jozan's the only white human, except maybe Kerwyn (I can't tell with him).
Regdar was designed as mixed-race by Todd Lockwood but more often than not painted as white by other artists.

Alhandra is white in the Player's Handbook - she might look Spanish or Italian with her dark eyes and hair, but she's still entirely European. Hennet is white in the Player's Handbook - the novel cover upthread makes him look pretty different from his original portrayal, and other artwork hews closer to the original. Naull has some Asian features, but she has extremely pale skin. Kerwyn, again, looks Mediterranean French or Italian, but still completely European.

You just don't see people looking like this in most D&D products, and I think that's a shame:


(Vietnamese)


(Swahili)


(Maya)


(Inuit)


(Austronesian)
