Good morning Lothoris,
If you're still looking for native's I'd be interested in helping out. I used to beta test for Nimin and CoC FoE so I'm familiar with both of the worlds you would be playing with.
I certainly wouldn't play a cannon NPC and would come up with one of my own female characters. I'm familiar with the OLD BESM 1st ed and I think I have the 2nd books somewhere on my computer so I'd have to look through the rules before I know what type of character, my gut is telling me a non combatant type at the moment, but I'm always ok to fight in that system.
