...is white? Whether it was an accident or not, I have a gentleman in my RtI campaign (yes, it finally shipped) with a name exactly the same as our favourite African-American genius. So, was it a coincidence or how does this work?

Coinkeydink. I don't even think there is a character image of a black guy in the files. It was probably just luck generated, since some people have gotten Karl Marx.

That could be true. The only reason I suspected it may be in some way intentional was because Banneker was certainly around in that time period, whereas Marx was not.
