Episode Diversity is still a huge problem

I know this topic is going to get shut down, but I want to bring attention to it. There are no featured stories that feature non-customization POC characters besides Instant Princess and if there is a POC character they play second fiddle to the main character who is meant to be white or is customization. Even in featured stories where black characters are featured on the cover the character is still customization. Honestly it’s not hard to tell people of color are an after thought to both community writers and Episode as a whole. This is really discouraging seeing this as a black girl. Honestly if you’re going to give people customization options don’t lock POC features. I’m honestly over the lame excuse that characters need to look a certain way for art scenes. When my character has dark skin with blue eyes and blonde hair she looks dumb.
