I'm pretty pale IRL with a yellow-ish skin tone and very faint freckles. Unlike most of my super-white-European-ancestry brethren, I actually tan very well, very dark, very fast, but I don't actually go outside, so uh. I have several characters I role-play here, sooo...
Faye has albinism so she's much paler than I am, no freckles, the same goes for Ael, and Beberri. Shade has a sort of greyish brown skin tone? Naturally dark, but not tanned. Her skin is actually meant to be sort of olive-toned, but there really wasn't any skin color option like that for Keepers that didn't just look sickly.
Unmei's skin is probably similar to mine, but more freckled and kind of unhealthy pale. C'therin's skin is a slightly darker, warm brown color, naturally dark skin that's been tanned by the sun as well. Then I have a catboy with very dark brown skin, and I have a Highlander lady with fair skin which is probably the closest to my RL skin tone, though I've yet to role-play either character.
Sooooo... it's pretty random. I usually base my character's skin tone on the setting of where they were born and raised, as well just whatever looks the best to me aesthetically with their other physical features.
