Female preset #9 is odd to me because my first thought when I saw her was that she's totally based on Stana Katic, who is definitely white. Making her dad one of the black presets is a head scratcher. Yeah. From what everyone tells me, preset 9 of the women has no father. She ends up with the dad linked to preset 9 of the men. That dude looks nothing like fem preset 9. And his dad does look like him, but looks nothing like fem preset 9. So stupid. So lazy. So..........unfinished. Calling it like it is.

Here you go: Alec Ryder, Scott Ryder, Sara Ryder. Alec's appearance changes according to the player character. I don't know if Ellen's changes, but in my game she appeared as I see in other peoples' screenshots. I had my 'Sara' as #3 while leaving Scott as default, and with how dark Ellen is, I think she's actually their step-mum. White: Default, #2, #3. Black: #7, #8, #9. Asian: #1, #4. ?: #5, #6. And, of course, not a single pale skin tone for Sara unless you play default...but that's another issue. I don't think Bioware will fix these. My only hope now lies with the mods. Someone please make default Alec for all the presets. For those of us that want it, of course.

I too used preset 9 for Sara and had the twin be the blond white guy. Was surprised too when there was no change in Alec. I think the mom is white.
The CC is so bad. Preset 9 is probably the best one for a good looking female that isn't asian. Everyone else has a huge or weird head.
Preset 9 is not pale at all though she is Latino or Mediterranean in color. Looks like they eliminated all Nordic people but Cora from this game.
What the heck, I just gave her black hair anyway because all the light hair options look horrible.
Sorry you can't make her Stana Katic,she still will end up Eva Mendes. Can't make her pale.

I didn't put much effort in character creation. My Sara is the preset blond hair, blue eyed babe. Everyone else in the family is dark hair and dark eyes. Who was daddy seeing on the side?

Lmao, what is it even based on? Is it just random? I thought it was preset-related, but the preset I used for Sara was originally black if I recall correctly and I ended up with a mixed Alec Ryder. Scott: ![](http://i.imgur.com/kSJMpLh.jpg) "Sara": ![](http://i.imgur.com/f11P18v.jpg) Alec: It works since the lightest female skin tone is tan anyway.

That's similar to my Alec except he was rocking an excellent beard. The mom ended up looking almost exactly like sis, same hair, slightly darker skin and no makeup, but they could have been twins.

I thought the female preset 9 was Caucasian. Regardless, she certainly isn't black. (???) I created this with preset 9: And this is my dad: I don't care if my dad is black - I can roll with the idea that he adopted two white babies. (I used the twin preset that is that blond guy with the square jaw and pointy eyebrows. I changed his hair color to brown, though. And I changed his eyes to match mine.) What I don't understand is that... why put such strict limitations on the CC so that "Alec can look like you" when .... Alec doesn't even look like you?! What's the point? If you choose a preset and you are barely allowed to customize it so that Alec is generated to look like you... then... why doesn't he match the strictly limited customizations? And furthermore, how is female preset 9 black? She looks nothing like a black woman. If she's mixed... she's definitely pulling a Rashida Jones at best. The lighting is so poor in the CC that who can even tell? Again... I have no problem with actually having a black Alec Ryder. I have a problem with the CC being so damn limited. If I can design a white woman (using a preset) who ends up with a black father, then why can't I have full fledged freedom to custom design a (any color) woman who will end up with a (any color) Alec Ryder? Edit: The funniest thing is that I designed the female Ryder to look as close to *me* as possible. I'm not black - just a brunette... (For some reason the Caucasian presets are blond, I'm told. Are brunettes not allowed to be Caucasian?) I'm sorry but the whole concept of "Alec looks like you!" is so asinine to me... because he **doesn't** look like my character, ergo I would really like more freedom to design my hero the way I want... (Alec could be a Turian for all I care. They adopt, I assume.) Edit: Ok... that would be way too cool if your dad was a Turian who adopted you. Let's patch in Turian-dad. And again... for reiteration's sake: Not upset that he's black. I'm upset that the CC is limited (claimed to be so limited for the sake of "having Alec look like you!" when he doesn't.) I just want a nice, big open CC so I can create a gorgeous protagonist. And her parents can be purple for all I care. /rant No homo but that brother look good.

Another unorthodox preset 9 family checking in! ![](http://i.imgur.com/D2vU7vx.jpg) I tried to make Sara at least look related to default Scott, but doing so completely alienated them both from Dad. More awkwardly, when I started the game and I saw Dr Harry on the shuttle in the beginning cinematic, I thought he was Dad. Frankly, I'm still not sure he's not. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/uYQYVMAupPAfTXFFwWlB.png) My Sara Ryder looks just like yours except for the hair. I had no idea that the dad was based on the preset you picked. I left the brother as default and expected Alec to look like default. I tried to head cannon and say they were adopted but then I read the codex and it said that the mom gave birth to fraternal twins. So I took it even further and said the mother couldn't conceive naturally haha. The lengths I go to to make sense of this.

I went with preset 3 for both Scott and Sara and I think it worked out quite well: ![](http://pre11.deviantart.net/2136/th/pre/i/2017/091/d/c/ryderfamilycollage_by_xmiss_woox-db494vd.jpg) Spoiler for one of Alec's memories:
