I always guess cleo denile is black or afro arab and the denile family is also black
The De Niles are from a variety in my personal lore; Kushite/Nubian on mom's side; Arab on father's. Their mom Amani (my stand in for Dedyet) came from a smaller kingdom and was arranged to Ramses as kids; they didn't get along at first but eventually formed a bond which bloomed into a genuine marital bliss.
But also to specifically the racists on dolltwt who rag on every black/nonwhite doll or brazenly deny nonwhite coded charcaters.

Doodle of Dedyet DeNile.
Mother of Cleo and Nefera and wife of Ramses. Back in the day she married Ramses because he sent a parade of gold because that’s what father-in-laws expect. She was a clever woman, very proud of her family and her kingdom rich of inventions, culture, luxury and pretty things. Then she was separated from her family, mummified and woke up in an archeologist dig. She liked teaching the diggers everything she knew and had a spiritual revival when she gave up her DeNile fabulousness for academic enrichment.

Gn1- Big Fat Egyptian-Greek Wedding
<p>Six years had passed since the Fearleading Squad graduated from Monster High.<br /> Frankie Stein and Ghoulia Yelps ended up at the same university. They mushed their brains together in their freshmeat year and by sophmoan year they engineered a new form of space travel. They're representing Earth as ambassadors in intergalactic councils. Clawdeen Wolf went to Londoom for school and shared rent with her wonderful big sister. She blew through classes like every night was a full moon and opened a boutique in three years. A larger company copied her ideas, she sued, won the case and has her name-brand in 300 stores around the globe. Lagoona Blue briefly joined a cult that said they'd save the ocean but it involved drowning land-creatures. She would leave the cult and go to Ascarican law school to become an defender of the environment. Also when she got out of the cult she found out Gil carried their son whom she gets to visit every other week at his freshwater-grandparents' house. Abbey thought she'd go back to her village but instead traveled with C.A. Cupid to the Greek Islands. Abbey trained with the Amazons then decided to go into advertisement. Her work was ahead of its time, Abbey was relieved to be recruited by a spy agency, err, she became a florist.<br /> Draculaura got in med school but choose to follow her real passion. She got a BA in Creature Writing from the local community college. She recently re-enrolled at Monster High. She's making new friends but stalks the gang on Skullbook.</p>
<p>Cleo DeNile went to Yell University then interned at Ptolemy Towers. She climbed up the pyramid and became Empress of Boo York City; tycoon queen and fashion icon. In celebration of her success, and since she hadn't seen her friends in months, Cleo invited her school chums to her eighty-story-penthouse, everything covered by her generous hand.</p>
<p>"Ghoulia! Getting contacts was the right way to go!" Cleo said as she hugged her beastie.</p>
<p>Ghoulia hugged tighter, "Thank you, Cleo, and thank you again for the donation towards our lighter hover-boards."</p>
<p>The mummy held up her finger, "Don't mention it, I believe in the cause."</p>
<p>"Oh my, Lagoona he's so big!" Frankie said as her sea-friend showed her baby photos on her phone. "And that thing is..."</p>
<p>Frankie motioned to the large fin on his head. Lagoona smiled, "He'll grow into that."</p>
<p>Abbey chewed on shrimp while Jinafire and Clawdeen discussed strategies for bring Jin into the public. Clawd Wolf talked about his residency at BleedingHeart hospital. Venus and Robecca talked about their vitro-fertilization journey and Iris explained how she was naming the new planet. Careers, failures, new couples, a few babies and bad haircuts; adventures were happening for the grads.</p>
<p>Cleo was chatting with Dr. Jane Boolittle as a scaly hand went to her back.</p>
<p>"Great party, Babe, did you see that new head Beatrice grew?" Deuce said, pointing to the monster across the room.</p>
<p>"Jane, the delectable dinner was provided by Deuce's restaurant. He has two Michescream Stars now." The mummy said while she put an arm around his shoulder.</p>
<p>"Cleo." Deuce whined, almost embarrassed at how she told everyone she met.</p>
<p>"Shut it, let me brag." Cleo demanded happily.</p>
<p>"Aww, and you guys are still together? The pets in the vents were right." Jane said.</p>
<p>The mummy didn't know what she meant but grinned, "I know, we're like lightning caught in a bottle. Frankie said that once about a rare good thing."</p>
<p>"I'm not exactly 'caught', Cleo." Deuce said to his long-time ghoulfriends' expanded eyes. "That needs to change."</p>
<p>Everyone turned around to see Gorgon kneel down and take Cleo's hand.</p>
<p>"Cleo DeNile, I-"</p>
<p>"Yes!" Cleo screamed.</p>
<p>Deuce blinked. "Sweet. I had some other stuff to say-"</p>
<p>"Right, go ahead, but yes!" The mummy said, feeling everyone staring at them.</p>
<p>"You know what? Here." Deuce said as he pulled the ring out Cleo snatched it immediately, slid it on her finger then went to her knees to kiss him.</p>
<p>Of course everyone cheered and clapped. The moment filled Cleo's heart to the brim. She had her planning committee/ bridal party in the same room and the love of her eternal-life in her arms. Nothing could spoil things for her now.</p>
<p>In the DeNile mansion Dedyet walked into the lightless throne-room of her husband. She lit a torch and sighed.</p>
<p>"Ramses." She said, bringing the torch to him, "It could be worse."</p>
<p>The former pharaoh grumbled.</p>
<p>"She's in love, it happens." Dedyet suggested to ease her husband's agony.</p>
<p>"How could she do this to me?" Ramses asked miserably.</p>
<p>"Oh, my shining sun, she's a rebel. All we can do now is love her despite disagreeing." Dedyet said while holding her husband's hand.</p>
<p>Cleo welcomed the million kisses from Medusa's snakes.</p>
<p>Deuce was being kiss-swarmed by his Aunt Euryale who had shaved her head but kissed with her own lips. The engaged couple were on Petros Island with the Gorgon sisters.</p>
<p>"We thought they day would never come!" Euryale said hugging her nephew.</p>
<p>"I always knew." Medusa said, hugging her future daughter-in-law.</p>
<p>"No you didn't." Euryale playfully stated.</p>
<p>"A mother knows, and honestly I would've adopted this one if Deuce hadn't let the lead out."</p>
<p>Medusa said. "Oh Maddy." Cleo said with a laugh.</p>
<p>"Let's talk about reserving Aphrodite's temple, we can't fit the whole family so I'm thinking big screens on the mountain."</p>
<p>Stheno the eldest said. "I'm thinking peonys!"</p>
<p>Euryale gasped, "And tarantula-brown dresses!"</p>
<p>"Aunt E, I don't think we-" Cleo interrupted, "I love tarantulas, Auntie. You have wonderful taste."</p>
<p>"Good girl." Euryale said, pinching Cleo's chin. The male gorgon pulled his fiance to the side.</p>
<p>"Why are you lying?"</p>
<p>"I'm pleasing the family." Cleo whispered, "Even if I have to wear taffeta."</p>
<p>Deuce took Cleo's hand, "Babe, I appreciate that but it's our day, I'm choosing the menu and you are planning everything else like you really want to."</p>
<p>The mummy squeezed his hand, "What I really want is our family, friends and loyal subj- fans to be there for us. And see us be perfect."</p>
<p>"Lovebugs, we're carving you a new table for the wedding." Stheno said with an axe in hand.</p>
<p><em>Not like I have connections to dealers from my time</em>, Cleo thought, "I would like that very much, Auntie."</p>
<p>In the Lovecraft Asylum the eldest DeNile daughter sat in the garden and soaked up the sun. One of the butterfly nurses brought Nefera her meds. Nefera kicked the meds out of the cup.</p>
<p>"Tell the monsterazzi they can eat me." Nefera said. "Fetch me a chai-tea."</p>
<p>"Well done, my daughter." Ramses said as he and his wife approached their first born.</p>
<p>"Darling, if we put your meds in something pretty would you take them?" Dedyet asked.</p>
<p>"Does 'pretty' mean diamonds and rubies at a spa?" Nefera asked.</p>
<p>"Yes." Ramses said the exact time Dedyet said, "Maybe."</p>
<p>Nefera grumbled then asked, "It's not a holiday. Why are you two here?"</p>
<p>Ramses sighed deeply, "Tragedy has struck again."</p>
<p>"Ramses," Dedyet warned, "Your sister is engaged. To the boy."</p>
<p>Nefera sneered, "And you put me in the asylum."</p>
<p>"Nefera, if we can convince Cleo to let you come to the wedding then maybe even you could stay out of Lovecraft for a while." Dedyet said.</p>
<p>"Hard pass." Nefera said, crossing her arms.</p>
<p>Nefera's father nodded, "I wish I could say the sam-"</p>
<p>Nefera's mother shot him a look and he cleared his throat. "Very well, my child, but please summon us if you change your mind."</p>
<p>"I'm not the one who needs to change!" Nefera yelled then rolled onto her shoulder to face away from her parents.</p>
<p>The mummy man wanted to give his daughter a million pyramids to see her well. His wise wife said he could not so Ramses and she wished her a fine rest of day.</p>
<p>In Cleo's perosnal work-suite in the DeNile Tower Clawdeen was fitting her long-time friends' bridesmaid dresses. They were not tarantula-brown taffeta.</p>
<p>"She threw Deuce's aunt's baby-making quilt in a whirlpool and took the planning crown back." Lagoona said while helping Clawdeen place lace roses on Abbey's dress.</p>
<p>"There's our ghoul." Clawdeen said, "Hey Jin."</p>
<p>Jinafire walked into the room with a large red egg in a carrier across her chest. "I got the Pan's choir to come to the wedding. Praise is welcomed."</p>
<p>"I thought we were going to call Operetta for the reception." Frankie said while her helping cyber-net-hands sealed envelopes.</p>
<p>"Cleo would like the choir while she walks down the aisle and around the table. Operetta is for the after party." Ghoulia said nibbling on the potential butterscream wedding cake.</p>
<p>Lagoona smiled. "A soundtrack to unlife, Cleo's a deadset."</p>
<p>"Where is she? I'm happy to work for a bride but this is familiar to when she'd leave us to do all the little stuff." Frankie said.</p>
<p>Cleo was finishing a board meeting, launching healthier products in the Ptolemy-DeNile scale-care lines."</p>

Lmao so any character that's dark colored is black to you?? Jane's white. Mari is Latina. Catty is JUST a black cat. Robecca is a robot. Cleo is Egyptian. Lmao.
They could’ve mad Robecca silver or some other color but they went with copper sooooo her metal is her “skin” and it’s brown.
Mari is afro-latina.
Catty probably shaves, just not as much as a werewolf. Either way, if you remove the fur, the skin is black. She’s black.
Cleo is obviously a reference to THE Cleopatra, the most well known African Queen. This is further evidenced by her meeting Seth/Pharaoh, a PTOLEMY. In Boo York Boo York. In Monster High, the Ptolemy’s were of greater power and influence than the DeNiles, this is because they were THE PTOLEMY’S, the Greek rulers of Egypt. Ramses’s wanting Cleo to marry Seth for power went further than that, it actually went back to history. Cleopatra, on whom Cleo is based on, was of the Ptolemy family. Obviously, Mattel won’t support incest but the real Cleopatra did in fact marry 2 different Ptolemy’s, her brothers. So we’ve confirmed that Cleo is definitely based on the real Cleopatra who ruled in Ancient Egypt. The downside, we don’t know about Cleopatra’s mother. Perhaps this influenced our Cleo’s mother, Dedyet’s being missing. HOWEVER, her sister, Arisnoe, is of African lineage, black. Going back to incest which was an extremely common practice, we can assume that Cleopatra’s mother was also of native blood, thus, black. To go back to Arisnoe having native blood, the ancient Egyptians were black, much like current sub-Saharan Africans today. Thus we know paternally, Cleopatra was mixed, Greek-Egyptian via Ptolemy blood (the Ptolemy reign was at about 300 years or so before she was born, native blood did come back in on the Greek side by then). Following incestuous tradition, her mother can be assumed to have come from the same lineage as Arisnoe’s and thus have African blood. This again is reflected in Monster High Cleo. She’s a dark skinned, Ancient Egyptian princess with blue eyes. Be sure to check out the facial reconstructions of Cleopatra currently too. It’s a face bearing the classic Greek nose, with full lips and a flatter face. Also a note on sculptures in ancient Egypt, they LOVED big eyes and long, straight noses. They exaggerated just how large eyes were or how long and straight the nose was. That was their fashion, so you can’t regard it at 100% truth in how the person’s face looked regarding the eyes and nose. Either way, OUR Cleo is a dark skinned beauty hailing from the African continent, thus, she is black or brown but she is not white.
Jane Boolittle is obviously a mash up of TARZAN and Dr. Doolittle. She was in a jungle on her own for years with only animals, like Tarzan, and is named Jane, like Tarzan’s lady. Tarzan was in Africa. Doolittle could speak to animals, like she can, and she needed a monster punned last name so BOOlittle it was. We dunno what kind of monster she is, but she’s an African one and thus, black.

No new MH dolls in stores
Idea:
Take the Nefera in the Sweet Treats pack and turn her into Dedyet.
step one: Learn how that’s properly pronounced/ get the Nefera
step 2- get Barbie safari clothes
step 3- get big glasses to make her look brainy
step 4- use Cleo extras to give her wraps
