Looking for a new x-terminal-emulator

Dear readers,
I am looking for a new terminal emulator. I use aterm since several years, but it lacks of UTF-8 support, and I would like to switch away from ISO-8859-1.
But *the* feature of aterm I can't live without is fading: aterm becomes darker when it loses focus, and I really love that. So I am looking for a terminal emulator like aterm with UTF-8 support.
Any recommandation welcome.
Update: rxvt-unicode supports fading and UTF-8. Thanks to ptitlouis for the advice!

Normally, I would recomend Konsole (if you're not afraid of Qt/KDE depends). Xfce console (I've forgot the name, apt-cache will help you there) support tabs and UTF-8.
Looks like <a href="http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/rxvt-unicode">rxvt-unicode</a> is the right one for you.
Have you tried mrxvt? It supports fading and has a very nice tabbed interface.
chris: mrxvt doesn't support UTF-8 yet.
