Since Cleon I made such a big deal about being the rightful successor to the 2I, I think whatever the 2I used would be most appropo.

For the reasons which Ken innumerates, perhaps rather than "Sylean" it should be "Imperial?" That is, when the Third Imperium formally chartered the organization, it required that it's symbol be neither the traditional Solomani nor the traditional Vilani one. That way, the organization's choice could equally displease traditionalists on both sides. :)

Folks, I'd like you all to rev up your drawing implements, whether
classical or electronic. I need three Imperium-wide symbols that will
represent medical assistance from the Compassion Corps. Three, because I
want one "Solomani" symbol - and for good and sound real-world legal
reasons, it cannot be the Red Cross/Crescent/Crystal, even if that would be
the most likely/rational/realistic - one "Vilani" symbol, and one "Sylean"
symbol. Ideally, they should be designed to be recognizeable if not
colored, though having a 'default' color is OK. If your imagination extends
to writing a brief history of the symbol and its adoption, I'll take that,
too!

In addition, if you have any ideas for symbols that might be appropriate
for particular regions or particular minor races, I'd like to see them (and
their stories, if you know them).
