Ogre Mages have 16 or 17 Cha usually, and I'd hardly call them attractive. The PHB does that that character with higher Charisma TEND to be more attractive, but doesn't state it as an actual rule or a universal fact. A character with really high charaisma could be really plain or even ugly, but also be very good at talking to people, and convincing people to see things their way. In the same way, a person with 4 charisma could be drop dead gorgeous, but have all the personality of a paper bag.<br/><br/>In fact, physical attractiveness is tacked on at the end of the thinds that Charisma represents, and to me, its more like an afterthought than anything else.
