Hee. Racket is a thief in a gang of thieves on the docks of 1800's New York in "Fragments of a Fiery Sun," which is available through Dreamspinner Press in their "Make Me a Match Vol 2" anthology. Thanks to the time period and a few character-specific quirks, he's nothing terribly ground breaking, but I liked him.

I should add that we have Kai, who is Japanese, who has a story in June, and then I'll have Isi/Jesse (depending on who's introducing him) who's part Native American, part African-American, who is getting a story pretty soon. We haven't started his yet, though. (We meaning me and aidara in this case.)
