I was talking with Ethan about this a couple days ago and it really got me to wondering about other characters. If your character was in the real world, what nationality do you think they would be?
For me it is as follows:
Kendall- As a guy, I see him as being Scandinavian seeing that he is all light skinned and blond. He sorta strikes me as British too but that could be because Mitch Hewer (his model) is British. Also, Scandinavia is all surrounded by water and anyone who knows my little blond can clearly see that he loves water.
As a girl, I can see him (her?) being an adorable little american daddy's little girl. He was a bit of a fancy little rich girl in his female days.
Sitkanis- I see him as being either American or Canadian. His model is from South Africa but I don't really see him there. He is just the type of guy who would be constantly camping and roughing it in any forest or mountain he could find.
Riki- Total American hippie/tree hugger. Nuff' said.
What about your characters?
