I've noticed the "white default" too. I currently have one black character, and have played three that I can think of in the past. (I have a pretty high rate of failspawns.) A pirate character named Sarah Morrison (also went by Mary and Maude) was one, and probably the only one anyone would remember.
I've had just one char that I would describe as hispanic, and maybe five that I imagined to have a Japanese look about them. All others have been white.
As for the eyes, I didn't really keep track but I feel that I had a lot of hazel-eyed characters. Right now I have 10 chars and the breakdown is 4: dark brown 1:light/golden brown 3: hazel/greenish 2: still don't have character descriptions.
Lastly, in about 7 years of Cantring I have played 10 male chars maximum, and of those only three did I have a really good time playing and remember well.
Oh, and why I actually hit the 'reply' button: great job, Meem! Raaj is still alive? One of those three male characters (the last of them to die) knew him. Silver Knight Jude Darkwell. He would have been a bit sleepy and then died of a heart attack. When I did play him it was a good bit of fun.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
