[QUOTE="KitanaVorr, post: 701244, member: 9167"] Tread [i]very[/i] lightly. I've seen too many ethnic discussions like this degenerate in my lifetime and have heard careless remarks that people have made without understanding the slurs involved. I don't expect people to be all PC and nutzo...but I do expect people to be respectful and realize stereotypes are wrong. Anyway, my game, Gangs of Texas deals with racial ethnic problems, and it is a tough subject to breach...it was difficult during character creation enough. The best thing to do when developing ethnicity in your game is just this...don't think of it as ethnicity...think of it as CULTURE. Don't think of it as physical according to someones ethnicity...think of the physical as a result of the environment that they live in. Ability differences based on ethnicity are definitely not desirable...but there could be favored classes, favored skills depending on the culture and environment that the groups of people live in.
