they could if they tried to make them attractive instead of going out of their way to make them as unsightly and apelike as possible.
Faerin could have been an elf eared lightskin mixed race black girl and with her cute voice and personality she would have been very popular.

But instead they gave her an absurd shitty hair cut, the most ugly possible facial features capped it with a RETARDED set of weapons clearly designed by someone who knows NOTHING about melee.
They did the same shit with the girl in the expanse giving her a succession of increasingly absurd "ethnic" haircuts to make her less and less attractive as the show went on.
Its like these people thing looking like an ogre is "empowering" while failing utterly to comprehend that *being physically attractive** is a literal cheat code at life and superpower.

Pic related a crippled brown half elf paladin.
If faerin looked like pic related, carried a mace or sword, had fake arm to hold her shield instead of that contrived shoulder stump mount and made a couple mistaakes along the way instead of being mary sue, she'd be a popular character.

People, me included don't hate her cus shes black, we have her cus her character design is SHIT.
