Huh what?  Someone say something about Charisma Carpenter?  :P<br/><br/>..... Yeah um, if you want to be attractive, but talk like an orc go right ahead.<br/><br/>Or if you want to be an orc and be the world's greatest diplomat, hey maybe you can convince that dwarf from cutting you off at the knees.  Probably, not...he is a dwarf after all.<br/><br/><br/>Me, I'll just give you penalties for trying to roll diplomacy against the dwarf for his sheer racial bias.  Now sadly, you'll probably win and the dwarf will be jumping up and down fuming, rather than cutting you off at the knees...but he'll talk to you and he might just listen.<br/><br/><br/>Honestly, I don't see anything tied to how attractive a creature is.... so if you want to want to prance around like a fairy, go ahead.  But when you can't talk your way out of a fight, because you offended a potential ally and he/she ends up tossing you in a "gutter"....don't come crying to me.<br/><br/>Flip side of that is, just because you're ugly and mean looking doesn't mean people will leave you alone either...heck they may just try to throw you in a "gutter" anyways.<br/><br/>Character appearance is personal preference and should fit the motif of your character.  Charisma is a measure of your personality and its affect on others.
