Re: Why is excluding white character creation.
I think Ryder is supposed to be mixed, I am pretty sure the mother is the same no matter what, but yeah there are a couple white presets, but they are awful.

Palest doesn't look good. If you go with a .15 and a dirty blonde it doesn't look bad.

I wanted an actual pure light blonde character and hair for that Ryder but couldn’t do it. Can with Shep in ME, can't with Ryder. Pretty big over sight really. I'm not a big fan of dirty blonde. Actually I don’t even do blonde often, I just wanted it for this particular Ryder. Normally I prefer going with a firey red head or black / dark hair and suntanned skin. Really though, even the red hairs don't all look good with the avail skin tones.
[Edit] admittedly I am super fussy with character creation, its even a running joke around here when I start a new game that I wont actually be playing it until a few hours later. I have a specific look in my head and keep tweaking until I get it. Grumble and growl profusely when I can't.

I dunno exactly what the look was you were going for but you might try an "9" (or an "8") style face with .15/.2 skin tone and some blondes out of the third row.
I like the profile check. I can't tell you the amount of times I immediately restarted ME1 because the nose or cheekbones were out of control.
