[QUOTE="Khaalis, post: 6417867, member: 2167"] Wow, I've never seen someone so one-sided and RPG shallow. I don't normally respond to intentional trolling but this level of outright ignorance galls me. Really? Junk Games? Shoved in a corner after AD&D? What world do you live in? Apparently you don't really know your RPGs then and are talking out of something... Its actually not uncommon in many rpgs. Lets see... comeliness, looks or appearance as a stat or quality .... (this is Not an exhaustive list) Big Names: 2E D&D, d20/3E Sourcebooks, 2300AD, Blue Rose, Buffy, Champions, Cyberpunk, Dragon Warriors, Gurps, Hackmaster, Hero System, Fantasy Hero, Palladium, Pendragon, Rifts, Savage Worlds, World of Darkness And the more fringe: ACE Agents, Agent SEVEN, Battleforce Bravo, Bloode Island, Buggin, Castle Frankenstein, Cinematic Unisystems, Danger International, Disaster!, Dragon's Egg, Empire of the Petal Throne, Enforcers, Espionage, Flash Gordon, Hero Force, Heroes & Monsters, HG Wells' War of the Worlds, Idyll, James Bond 007, Justice Inc, Life, the RPG, Mekton Zeta, Monsters and Slayers, Mortal Combat, Nightlife, Ninja Hero, Omnifray, Robot Warrior, Shriek, Silhouette Transformers, Star Hero, Star Legion, Teenagers from Outer Space, Trancers, Western Hero, Witch Hunt, etc. Not to mention there are a lot of people that still use it. I've even already seen it pop up for 5E. Its not a stat for everyone's table but it does have its uses. Positive Aspects off the top of my head? * Adds to verisimilitude.
