Something like a Lizardfolk, Kenku, dragonborn, or Tabaxi. I'd even settle for a Goliath. Just something that is immediately visibly distinct from the norm that comes with some interesting cultural differences and behaviors without being callously evil.
Goliath would be rad.
But how about a Thri-Kreen? I love those things. (They're not just a Dark Sun thing, they existed in Faerun before Dark Sun even came out.)
