The question isn't about "race" in the IRL sense of skin color and facial features.

We want to know about his "race" in the fantasy fiction sense. That is, is he a human, Tenno(No), Orokin, Corpus, Cephalon(No), Clone, Sentient(No), or something else we haven't seen before?

Much of the fun in thinly sketched settings like this is in speculating on what isn't known.

Tenshin makes a big deal about how the Lotus concealed her racial origins, but he hasn't exactly been forthcoming with us himself, has he? That implies that this isn't just something he neglected to mention, but rather that he thinks race is important, but still conceals his own. Who wouldn't want to know more, considering that?
