Two are Russians (are you surprised? You really shouldn't be), one is Russian-Russian and the other I imagine as a Kazakh.

One girlie is American. Das it.

Well, all three of them are blends, whether comparing them to canon ancestry or RW groupings/nationalities.

Mordecai appears to be some blend of Mediterranean, including a little bit of Persian. Given that he literally designed his body, this was a choice that was influenced by an on-again, off-again lover (in a time frame of centuries).

Moriko is mostly Asian on her human side, leaning toward Korean (she's also a half-elf)

Kazue appears to be some blend of Celtic and Japanese (red haired/green eyed kitsune). Her father is human, but he has a slightly dark complexion; Kazue's color is almost a duplicate of her mother's.

As for nationality... um, the location of the current story is kind-of sort-of European themed, so probably somewhere in there. Culturally, they don't really match anything perfectly.

I mean, as an author, you might draw on real-world references for your character's bacground and physical appearance. What nationality would you use as your protagonist's identity?

My protagonist is based on a French noblewoman from the European Enlightenment.
Spanish.

Which would come as a surprise if any users here follow my story, I'm talking about the male lead here.

The female lead would likely be European descent, half French specifically. I haven't considered what nationality she would be, but her dad is French. She's a cat girl so... cat? :blob_teehee:

Does reading this thread get this song stuck in their head or it is just me?
