Taken from here:

Mana looks like a British farmgirl to me.

Kyle looks like he'd be Danish. He seems like he'd be a viking. Or Irish becasue of his red hair.

Ceci seems German or Dutch...
Rosalind looks French.
Yue is Japanese.
Dorothy seems like she'd be Norse or something.
I'm having trouble uploading the pictures, so post her eif uyou have any other ideas.

Yes. Defining characteristics?
-Big lips
-Have blondish hair
-An odd sense of fashion/Willy Wonka-esque clothing/hat
-Eat everything in sight save for random hated item
xD
Ah. I always thought of Yue as Chinese rather than Japanese.
No idea why. Probably because it is a province in China or something. rofl.

That or it's becasue Chinese people have a tendency to be like 'You buy, you buy, yes, no, yes, ahhhhhhhhhh yes.'

I agree with you when it comes to Rosalind (her last name of de Saint Coquille sounds Frence) and Yue (because of her kimono). I think it's very hard to judge the ethnicities of the others though

Except Ray's just listen to his British accent when he says "Morning"

Cartoonish. You know. Well, more specifically, Animish. Big eyes, pointy noses, bright red cheeks? Totally Animish.
It's a make believe place...there is no Europe, N.A., S.A., Asia, Antarctica, Africa, or Australia (wow..Europe is the only continent that doesn't have a word that begins with A) in Rune Factory. It's all Norad, Kardia, Avuranna or whatever they are.
They are...Kardian? I can't remember the name of the country. x-x Oh, wait! Ceci, Egan, Jake, and Orland are all Elven! And Leo, from RF1, is Dwarven!
And then everyone else is Human!
*wins* I like the idea that they are Animish.

"de Sainte Coquille" means literally "of saint shell" put it probably translates to something like, Max Saint Shell or something XD But yeah in that case they are all french due to the last name. Yue makes pretty frequent references to being japanese (ex. kimonos from her "home country") and she mentions she comes from a different land... XD

I like this animish idea as well. It's full of the logicssss.
