    I might have a boy though, and then Dorian is up for grabs again.

    Don't you have some hope, Bethany?

    Is everyone so sure I'm having a girl, then?

    I am starting to think my family is a bunch of freaks, or something like that.

    My entire imediate family has blue eyes (of varying shades), and most of the family outside of my immediate also has blue eyes.

    I, myself, have light blue eyes. I have had them my entire life, so I do not see a big deal with blue eyes. I had no idea they were becoming increasingly rare, either.

    Having blue eyes, I don't see any difference in my alliegence to good or evil, haha. I have often wondered why so many stories and thelikes have used blue eyed characters so often. I have never been able to find any mythology or strange beliefs on blue eyes, so my curiousity continues to grow when I read more and more about the blue-eyed character being the main.
    Although, I found this:

    "Blue eyes came with time, through millennia of environment adaptation to colder climates. See History of eye colors.

    Blue eyes contain low amounts of melanin within the iris stroma; longer wavelengths of light tend to be absorbed by the underlying iris pigment epithelium and shorter wavelengths are reflected and undergo Rayleigh scattering.[5] The type of melanin present is eumelanin.[19] The inheritance pattern followed by blue eyes is thought to be similar to that of a recessive trait.[7]

    Blue eyes are relatively common throughout Europe and other areas with populations of European descent, such as Canada, the United States, Australia and some countries of South America, like Argentina, Uruguay or Brazil. Throughout the rest of the world they are relatively rare. Around 8% of the world's population has blue eyes.

    Finland and Lithuania have the highest proportions of blue-eyed people; they are also very common in other countries around the Baltic Sea.[citation needed] One survey estimated that nearly 90% of Icelanders have blue or green eyes.[42] A 2002 study found the prevalence of blue eye color among non-Hispanic whites in the United States to be 33.8% for those born between 1936 and 1951 compared to 57.4% for those born between 1899 and 1905[7].

    As melanin production generally increases during the first few years of life, the blue eyes of some babies may darken as they get older."


    ...but that really has nothing to do with the topic at hand.

    I am interested to see if I can find anything of more significance to the thread.

    Personally, I always thought green eyes were better looking than blue.

    According to wiki, my eyes are not hazel since that term is more often used to describe eyes that are kind of murky brown. Live and learn.

    Bethany: yeah, hazel eyes are different from green eyes - they have brown outer irises and greenish hued inner irises, whereas green eyes are uniform. All variants of brown and blue are usually caused by an additional material in the eye which is controlled by seperate eye genetics to base colour.

    I noticed in the comic that Steven and Gabrielle both had brown eyes. Roland ended up with blue eyes.

    I guess it's because Sai King wrote himself into the story as Roland. That's the impression I got anyway.

    I'm not sure if eye color determines alliance though.

    Didn't Odin have blue eye(s)?

    two brown eyed parents can have a blue eyed child, if both parents base gene is Bb x Bb = 25% chance of bb (blue), 75% chance of BB or Bb (brown)

    My personal thoughts on the original question are that since blue eyes and blonde hair are so rare throughout the world some special siginifigance has been bestowed upon these traits.

    How can I have forgotten - Mordred has blue eyes! I guess that craps all over the idea of it being a Red/White thing.

    But you forget who his daddy is BRag. I think some Roland genes would be very hard to overcome.

    He certainly isn't an agent of the White, though.
