Flashing Blades is another system I want to see, as long as it didn't involve giving money to FGU.

I'm divided as to what games system to use- though GURPS is right out. I want something where I can put on individual templates for the character's physical "clades" and cultures. Unisystem is one possibility, though frankly, I want to wait until "Beyond Human" comes out (if it ever does) before really looking at it. There's a number of other characteristics I want the system to have, but I think I'll wait until post my references/influences before I go into detail.
