Actually, I kinda like the world presented in RMSS's (RoleMaster Standard
System) Shades of Darkness (a Genre book)... I was also thinking about
taking some races from RM (just Rolemaster) ... Here are the tenative
stats for the Cherubium (Winged Elves from RM):

Body: -1
Quickness: +1
Strength: -1
Charisma: +2
Advantages: Low-light vision, Flight with a quickness multiplier of 1/2
Essence
Of course life would be tough...imagine trying to find a job when you
have giant feathery wings ...
Well whadya think?
