My thinking is that priority should go to types with lots of potential for dramatic/dynamic/expressive images.<br /><br />So basically if what you need are odd or non-humanoids, I'd go with these in top to bottom priority order: <br />Zhmun: amoeboids should provide the possibility of distinctly interesting poses<br />Caliban Ferox: their wrinkled, shriveled faces allow for lots of close-up expression<br />Minga: what's an RPG book without a little sex appeal?<br /><br />If what you're short on is more "straight-human-looking" types, I'd go with either of these in no particular order: <br />Circean Witches: some sort of group ritual that could provide interesting and dynamic poses<br />Sisterhood of Morganna: combat poses have a lot of potential for visual dynamism<br />Chris C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08655640273250716377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8302487761596456689.post-63225298870585468112014-05-10T05:01:49.604-04:002014-05-10T05:01:49.604-04:00I vote for Sisterhood of Morrgna

Good visuals of alien races are important to a sci-fi space setting.<br /><br />If there's only room for three of the above, I'd choose the Atozan, Minga, and Quicklings.
