I have come up with various theories regarding Frisk. I'll come up with a more solid theory later. But I think you are onto something here. After all, you have presented good Facts.

What I'm almost positive about is that:

- There are indeed seven human souls, or at least there are seven present in the game as we can see.

- Frisk is human, or at least what could be considered human in this case. The fact that that their sex nor gender can be defined might be because Frisk represents us players. Thus, being yellowish-orange. I think this is an attempt to get a skin tone which could represent humans from all races. The different races tend to be best identified for their skin tone. Our skin is kind of orange if you think about it. The major factor is our blood being red. For this explanation's sake take orange as a middle ground on skin tones. First, you have "white" and "black" people. "White" skined people are orangish but their skin tone depends on how lighter it is. The same could be said about "black" skined people (this could be harder to grasp and I'm terrible at explanations but take this example: have you noticed how despite being black the palms of their hands aren't?), they are orangish too but their skin tone depends on how darker it is. Then you have the part which supports the idea of orange being the middle ground when it comes to skin tones best: tan skin. There are people who aren't exactly "white" nor "black", taking more of a middle ground, an example could be latins. Of course there are people who aren't necesary latin who have tan skin, and latins who don't have tan skin too. The same could be said for all races, but it's kind of characteristic of some races to have a certain skin tone. Anyways, I think you can get the idea: there is another skin tone, another skin difference between people. Tan, i think you can easily resemble with orange, not to dark, not too light. The yellowish factor on Frisk comes from asians, asians are know to have particulary yellowish skin. To the orange skin add a little of yellowish addition. I don't know if I explained it well enough, it isn't really about races, just about skin tones. We DO tend to notice our skin tones at first glance, it isn't a bad thing either. It's a clear difference. Different doesn't mean better or worse, it just variety. I think Toby meant for Frisk to have this skin tone in an attempt to reach everyone and not leave anyone out. I think he wanted to be able to take in our variety and for it to happen took what could be a middle ground.

- Also, Chara mentions they reincarnated. This means that Chara was Frisk in a previous life and that Frisk is Chara in the current one.

I'm kind of formulating a theory about this, but it have yet to finish it. You are welcome to see when I finish it! :D

Also, I'd be glad to help you with your own theory if you want to. Or we could just work together later. I'll have to apologize if you don't understand something though, I'm not a fluent english writer nor speaker.
