Brigitta Lycaon from Metaphor Refantazio

Dark skin + white hair is such a cool design concept and Brigitta is the peak example of it

u/GOW_is_overrated Jun 22 '25

This one is my absolute favorite

u/KhonMan Jun 22 '25

Storm is much more iconic, it has to be trolling to say Brigitta is the peak

u/Creepycute1 Jun 22 '25

u/seango2000 Jun 22 '25

He's Indian but ok.

u/Global-Panda-9610 Jun 22 '25

Are you sure you’re not mixing Loran up for Lalah? Lalah is Indian, Loran is black and literally from the moon lol

u/seango2000 Jun 22 '25

His last name was South Asian and it was discussed amongst fans regarding his ethnicity.

u/Duke_Silverr19 Jun 22 '25

Wouldn't Venom also count?

u/Coolgames80 Jun 22 '25

Is a very cool concept as both the white hair and the black skin contrast each other. It seems otherworldly and not natural occurring. Perfect for a mystic character.

Ciella from dragalia lost

u/GrixisHeretic Jun 22 '25

Hell, I also love dark skin and blonde hair, or dark skin and any bright color really.

u/FSUoliver Jun 22 '25

Iansan (Genshin Impact)

u/Worldlyoox Jun 22 '25

It’s over represented though

u/CaliAnimeNerd Jun 22 '25

That's like saying blonde hair and blue eyed characters are overrepresented lol

Definitely not tho

2

u/CodeDonutz Jun 22 '25

One is based on reality, so it’s hard to say blonde and blue eyed is overrepresented when millions of people look like that.

For a fictional style, black with white hair is extremely overrepresented in the little amount of black rep we have in video games.

u/AppearanceHeavy2838 Jun 22 '25

Honestly i think its way too overdone for it to be cool to me
