MLud
A runtime-extensible language built on top of SML/NJ designed for building collaborative environments. Supports dynamic delegation with multiple dispatch, several useful datatypes, inline ML, and checkpoint persistence.

OScheme
Small, embeddable interpreter, mostly Scheme R4RS conformant, with extensions: supports prototype-based object model, some POSIX system calls, compilable in secure mode.

Agora
OO prototype-based, reflective language, based on only message passing, a key trait of OO languages; it allows late-binding polymorphism, the key trait making possible incremental modifying of programs. Descriptions, papers, implementations: Smalltalk, C+

Additional
Information: Prototype-based languages are classless object-oriented languages, OO without classes. Instances of objects are made by cloning other instances. Usually, these languages have only one data structure, the associative array. Such languages are very flexible
