Jesus christ RPG Maker, you are dogshit with darker skin tones. Selecting some options just puts a peach skin tone on, so you can't have like, furrowed brows, otherwise you get this.
This is the best of the darker skin tones I think, because one looks like brown ash, and another slightly darker than that.
I was trying to avoid using plugins or additional content for this first one but goddamn. I just wanted a cool blacksmith for the shop!
