More Choices When Making A New Character
I think that a name, sex, and language isn't enough. Maybe there could be more choices such as eye and hair colour. These things could show up in the char description: "This woman in her twenties with blonde hair and blue eyes isn't wearing anything worth mentioning", or somthing like that.

yeah... i've been waiting for hair and eye color to be added for a long time now
it would really help with the RPing if you actually knew what color eyes and hair you have... when people do that
it sometimes bothers me, I feel like saying... what are you talking about, you don't have eye colors or hair color... oh well
so it would be nice to see hair and eye color added.

I'd like to see body type introduced, whether randomly or selected (or both options) when you start.
I've got one char who I've tried to roleplay as a not very bright, over-sized kind of guy without doing it annoyingly (as illustrated above) and I find it just gets missed a lot of the time.
It'd be great if there was a character builder of sorts when you registered a new one. You could have various options (hair, eye colours & build to start) where you could specify based on a drop-down list or select "Random" and the game would decide for you.
Eventually you could even tie this into regions based on congregations of various features so what you pick at spawn the system would randomly put you in a place where there's at least one other person with similar features.

I don't know if I should be indulging this information or not, but you'll find out sooner or later anyway.
There will be a system like this, well, idealy. Doesn't mean it'll work or happen, it's just what's planned on at the moment.
Your character will have physical attributes (Eye colour, hair colour, skin colour, etc etc) and variable attributes (Muscular build, weight, height, etc) - The variable attributes will increase or decrease based on their parameters (An exmaple: Using, say, Weight - The more you eat, the heavier you'll get)
With this system, others will be able to see what you look like before you make any such comments, and then you can role play with them.
