I created an alt months ago and heavily implied that she was 'Asian' by giving her almond-shaped eyes (as close to as the CC could get anyway), straight black hair, 'Asian-y' skin tone and the Japanese name Miyuki Yamauchi.
The character started as an archer/bard and is now in the process of attaining myth gear. I've got her through the Amalj'aa dailies to get her the drake mount as well for character-driven mount usage.
My idea for the character, originally, was to make her an ic ninja and then swap her to the job when it came out. Backstory wise I combined the idea of the hidden villages of shinobi (like in Naruto) with the displacement and loss of the Dwaves of Erabor (from the Hobbit). Setting their original home somewhere in the mountains of Coerthas, Miyuki and her 'clan' of ninja (etc) were forced to flee after a dragon attack left their village destroyed. Now living in the Black Shroud, she (oocly) can be found in and around Gridania.
With the advent of the Domans and the obvious 'Asian' style of them (not to mention the pending thief/ninja class/jobs) I've reworked Yuki's backstory slightly to imply that her 'clan' immigrated generations ago to Coerthas from Doma.
