I am trying to make a somewhat normal colored mooncat...

[Cronno]

I have made like 6 characters and cannot bare to keep going through these opening cutscenes. Please, for the love of god, help me find a human looking skin color for my mooncat.

Why does it need to be a mooncat? Also, I find you can accurately see skin tone by switching the background in character creation and getting a spin, lets you see them in a lot of different lighting.

I have to admit I chuckled a little.

Anyway yeah, just change the background and such in the character creation.

I like the eyes.

How dare you complain about this, when you clearly haven't spent countless attempts at creating the character you think you're creating in Skyrim, like I have. :S
I swear, I created my character and thought I got it right, then entered the game, ran through the dragon attack and got up close to a brazier. Only to find I was blind on one eye, evil grinned under the beard or simply deathlike in skin tone when I wanted tan.
Thankfully, I was wise enough to save the game right before character creation.

Like the others say, browsing the 4 different background settings in ARR will help you a lot. Also remember that you can toggle night/day view there!

You can do that?! <Insert PogChamp Here>

I knew about changing the background to Los Noscea, Black Shroud, Thanalan and the Carline Canopy inn room, but I didn't know you can change between day and night!

The left three colors in the top row are natural looking, albeit pale, in color. And the far right color on the bottom row is a pretty natural looking dark shade, IMHO (this is female, not sure if male skin tones are different).

If you want a more medium tanned shade though . . . I haven't had a lot of luck with that either. There may very well be one I haven't noticed though, good luck in your search for the perfect skin color! I like the moon cat eyes, too. ^^

@OP,
I have found that Gridania's forest background in the character creator, gives you the most accurate lighting for viewing the actual Skin tone and hair color for your character. I would suggest using that. I have also noticed that in the skin tone section for Keeper of the Moon Miqote's the most humanoid looking skin for a caucasian person is the first 2 rows along the left hand side, and the first row along the top.


Don't be afraid to use the skin colors in the top left hand side even if they appear to be too bright. Most of the time the game's lighting tones down that "glowy skin" color and it ends up looking pretty good.
Hope that helps. Good luck!

The bottom few rows of colors can give you a nice tone if darker skin is your cup of tea. I find most of the more chocolatey skin tones translate well in most lighting, and overpowers the grey undertone Keepers (and Duskwrights) have.

Don't forget Mooncats have fangs!

There's quite a few options. Lacks that nice Brazillian tan a Seeker can get. Is there a certain tone you're looking for?
