I haven't played KoDP for years but both Humakt and Orlanth are blonde if I recall correctly. At that time it was even surprinsing to me because up to then I when protraying them as brown haired ;) I don't necessarily portray them as anglo-saxons but I guess KoDP pretty much cimented my vision of them so i see them as "mostly" fair-skinned and brown haired. Blonde and red were also depicted in the game. I like the orange eyes of S:KoH though.

I've never seen blonde orlanthi in any supplement... redhair and brown hair, yes, but blonde?

Regardless, I like "protagonists" (they're still the ones most written about in Glorantha) being something different from anglosaxons for a change.
