Most common Gaijin in Mythic Japan are Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch, or English. Less common are various ethnicities from Southeast Asia, Russia, and Mongolia (some mongols are [[Osumosan (Yaranaika)|sumo wrestlers]] - as they are now, but not historically). You can even be Swedish or Finnish; they often worked on European ships as sailors. Basically, you can be from anywhere in 16th-Century Mythic Earth, if you can explain it. GM must approve.
