So, I really like the suggestion of Stygian for melans, and I wanted to find a corresponding word for albinos too. Which lead me to checking the other Underworld rivers.
I think Lethian or Lemosyne (both being other versions/variants of Lethe) would work well. The river Lethe is the one that wipes a soul's memories, so it's got a 'wiping clean'/'clean slate' sort of feel. Kinda washed out, which fits albinos.
