From anti-whitewashing blogs I've gone to, the general consensus is to not alter your skin for a cosplay in any way, even going to the tanning booth.

And it's okay to cosplay characters of color, but like you said you're a white person choosing from a small pool of brown-skinned characters and some people might not appreciate it so keep that in mind.

Yeah, I'm expecting some people might not like it for whatever reason, but I'm going to try to do the best I can to be respectful. I'll just cosplay Raetsel as-is, then, and I'll probably skip Zoey and maybe do River instead--I like Zoey better but I like River fine, too, and I've been told that when I lose some weight (working on it now) I'd look sort of like her.

Thanks for the advice!

Honest question:
How the hell is anybody going to prove that they tanned just for the cosplay, and not because at the time they happened to want to be tan?
People have been tanning since forever.
