Orianna Canonically Has Two Dads I Think

hello ice!

i was planning on doing an interpretation/design of a preexisting character that has only been shown in-game as a sprite.

^ this is their sprite (clover from undertale yellow)

i was in the middle of drafting some concepts when i remembered from your lessons of how little racially ambiguous characters get interpreted as Black. i then quickly sketched up a Black interpretation of their sprite, with everything the exact same except for the hair turning into locs, the lips being two-toned, and the nose being wider.

this game has several endings, two main ones though. one where this character chooses violence and vengeance as "justice" and the other wjere they choose self-sacrifice ajd peace as "justice".

as a nonblack POC, it feels weird to initially interpret a paleskinned pixel art character as white, and then change it to or have another design/option/idea of them as Black. Also, it feels strange that the main reason behind me doing so was a sudden remembering of what i could add to contribute to the greater community, but i fear im using the character's ambiguous race and my presuming of them being Black is tokenization.

another small element is that all artwork by the creators done of this character has been protrayed as nonblack.

i dont really know what i should do -- move forward with them being interpteted as Black for only one design? for both? for none?

(also, i apologize if my phrasing is offensive or awkward or innappropriatw -- i dont know if its right to refer to a design as "the white one" or "the Black one")

thank you for your time!

Just do it lol. It's fine. It's a Black edit and Black edits are fine. That's what we all do when we make them- go "yeah, they were white. BUT WHAT IF-" and then decide to add a new depth of perspective to them, their designs, and their decisions, now that they're Black.

The fact that you even put that much thought into it is more than someone who was tokenizing Black character design would do- just make sure you're being honest with yourself and your motivations, and that it doesn't become a source of you feeling good about yourself rather than just something you feel passionate about, or wanted to try. If you genuinely realize you're doing it for clout, stop. But if you actually care, proceed.

And as for their character route, that's fine too. Black characters should have complex stories!

i'd rather not engage online discourse. i mean, i'm also generally against engaging people or entities you dont know, but online discourse especially, not.
