They have no obligation to make it resemble any specific representation from the real world.



    This is lost on a lot of people. It's why you also get these arguments with Gaius, where it's (to me) transparently obvious that it's just a tan.
    I need to see a Photoshop version of Rahb without his "tan."

    I think you're missing his point. He's not saying Raubahn has a tan, just that he has features consistent with those of a (naturally) dark-skinned Caucasian (e.g. many Indians would fall under this grouping.) We can quibble over whether that's the case for Raubahn, but as far as his argument goes regarding skin colour =/= race, he is entirely correct.
