Lot of interesting ideas here, I'm glad this thread was dug or I may have never knew it existed :)

Personally, I'm okay with wild variations in hair and eye color, but I'd prefer skin color stayed pretty normal. And if descriptions are ever implemented I think they should be random, preferably with some relation to your spawn point. In real life people can't choose what they look like when they're born, after all. Plus, the thing about picking your own description is that players usually have a certain type of personality in mind, and then make their characters' appearances match it. Not terribly realistic, and that'd be fine in a regular RP game, but in Cantr your character's personality is supposed to develop after they've spawned.

(Though hair dye would always be nice to have as an option...if you're a blonde but you want to infiltrate that city of green-haired people, dye would come in handy...)

Also, I love the idea of medallions and tattoos, but I'd like to have them as well as descriptions.

I'm a fan of having different races, eye and hair colors... For eye and hair colors, I am personally a fan of going by the anime rule of thought: that any color in the electromagnetic spectrum is fair game. But at the very least, I hthink we should have a few odd-ball, non real life colors.

As for races... I think we need people who vary in between greenish skin to orangeish skin. Very cantr appropo I think.
