I also like the idea but i want her to be lighter since it would break this stereotype being ''dark and mysterious''.
^ Something like my OC Luna.
I also would like to have androgyny female. A new guy would be punk rock dude with mohawk.I know my ideas sucks. Just keep scrolling.
I love your OC
Yeah I really thought an African Voodoo priestess or Witch doctor would make thegame more interesting, and since the game is lacking on ethnicity outside Caucasian and Asian that an African woman would be great

one of the great mysteries of life. I think shes pulling a Michael Jackson.
Racial identities aren't so easily categorized as we'd like to think, with more and more "mixed race" people, those with ethnic identities separate from their genetic race lineage, etc.
I don't really see what all the fuss is about. She looks how she looks, and her nationality is American.

the issue is that she used to be chocolate, and now she's caramel. 5 bucks she's vanilla in 6

She doesn't seem to have anything to prove she is hispanic and she seems a bit too dark to be something like Hawaiin.
I say based on her skin, hair, personality (as both Lisa since she has the classy black girl attitude and La Mariposa since she talks about "rhythm" and "beats" alot), her clothing choices, and the name "Lisa Hamilton" makes me think she is African American.

Yeah it's also weird how Vanessa went from mocha in VF4 to light brown in VF5. What does Japan have against black female characters?

hate to be blunt, but its their color they don't like (not gonna get into how they never have telltale facial structure, either). they like everyone to look the same. side effect of a one culture nation I guess.Yeah it's also weird how Vanessa went from mocha in VF4 to light brown in VF5.

Forget about her ethnicity, I wish she could just pick one damn personality and stick with it. O_O

I just assumed she was schizo.

I think whats interesting about her is that shes not a villan nor a hero which porbably makes one of the few not one dimensional characters in this game. With that said i wish she would drop the luchadora persona since now its doesnt really fit with her back with Donovan and brings very little to her characterization besides her friendship with Tina.

Most of them are honestly flat-chested so unless they aren't buff underneath, it won't create an effect.
So you mean to say that every character has flavors depending on their skin tone? :v

Welcome to a brief section I call: "Stages I fucking hate." Here I will list the stages that blow ass chunks, and provide a brief explanation as to why they blow said chunks of ass. I was going to include pictures, but it turns out I couldn't even get good pictures of all these stages because they're so damn boring and lame that no one uploads them. So anyway, enjoy.
1. Dojo
BECAUSE IT'S NOT EVEN A FUCKING STAGE! People need to realize this. It's banned for a reason, and that reason is that you're not supposed to be fighting in it. Why? The environment adds a whole plethora of moves, tools and options into the game that affect characters in varying ways. Imagine if your opponent just started randomly, but deliberately, taking out your most useful tools. You'd be like: "That's stupid! My character relies on those tools for spacing and punishing and offense/defense!" Well guess what? That's EXACTLY what picking Dojo is doing to your opponent! It removes some characters' tools completely and alters others to be highly inefficient. Characters weren't designed to be used in a vacuum, they were designed to be used in an arena; in an actual fighting space. Dojo is the fan-favorite for spineless pussies and anyone who bears the misfortune of playing with online randoms is subjected to it more than all the other stages combined. Fuck Tatami!
...oh, and it looks really boring, too.
2. Aircraft Carrier
What's an ugly, lazily uninspired stage import that's as close to Dojo as you can get without actually being Dojo? Aircraft Carrier. It's big, it's boring and it sucks. It's slightly more interesting than Dojo and does have some very distant, minimalistic electric fences, so it's one baby step ahead of Dojo. But when your reference of comparison is so low, you're still a shit stage.
3. Dead or Alive
What's an ugly, uninspired stage that's as close to Aircraft Carrier as you can get without actually being Aircraft Carrier? Dead or Alive! "Wow, it has TVs and cardboard spectators!" Yes, it does. And they don't get close to remedying how flat the damn thing is. This is supposed to be where the tournament Grand Finals are held. It should be epic! It should be exciting! But it isn't. Just a bunch of sheet metal.
4. Arrival
What's an ugly, lazily uninspired stage re-skin that's as close to Dead or Alive as you can get while still actually being Dead or Alive? Arrival! It's the same damn stage minus the cardboard men and jumbo screens mentioned earlier. Why is it not quite as bad as Dead or Alive? Because water is prettier than cardboard spectators. Oh, and the sky is not black, so you get a bit of a change from Dead or Alive, Aircraft Carrier, and Dojo, the three worst stages.
5. Coming Soon
What's an ugly, uninspired stage re-skin that's as close to the other two circus stages as you can get while still trying to masquerade as a new stage? Coming Soon! Wow, Team Ninja has a trend with it's lower-end stages, don't they? First of all, three damn circus stages is just too many. That means you're three times more likely to get a circus stage than each of the normal stages whenever you pick random. And to top it off, the circus stages aren't really the most exciting and interesting ones to begin with. But fine. They give you some crazy stuff to do so you get to use some brain power. Oh, unless you get the Coming Soon variant. It has no environmental stuff at all aside from from standard, rather spaced-out walls. And, to top that off, it's visually the most boring of all the already fairly boring circus stages! One circus stage would have been fine (ideally, The Show). But now we got three different variants, one of which is separated from the others by being deliberately boring, vacant and uninteresting. "Oh, but it can be selected in Tag Mode..." Yeah fuck Tag Mode. No one cares.
