[QUOTE="Chaos_Kitten, post: 1615726, member: 13257"] Actually I'm just playing an avariel fighter/ranger in a Forgotten Realms campaign. She had been curious about the world beyond her sheltered home and it works out since avariel are making more contact with the world at large. She has leather armor but only very rarely wears it. She feels it impedes her ability to fly. She also wears light, lose clothing that also won't impede her ability to fly. It's one of the most important things to her. She does have a charisma of fourteen. I wouldn't of bothered of putting it there if I didn't have a backstory reason behind it. She's incredibly short, that bothers her a lot and so she feels like she needs to "act" taller. So that means putting lots of ranks into intimidate. I also have a couple in diplomacy, but just because she is a winged elf after all and that stuns people a bit. Out of game I've been told that, "Female characters should always dress sexy in games. It's what they do. It's entertaining for the rest of us". The first sessions they were also incredibly surprised I was actually effective and knew what I was doing in battle. They actually asked who wrote my character for me. I felt so offended. Also in game they feel this overwhelming need to revealing clothes in her bag. I wouldn't mind if it was just a funny part of the roleplaying dynamic of the group, but it feels like more than that with the out of game vibe. I have been sticking with it and trying to make them see the errors of their ways. They are all college age guys and I thought they would know better, but I guess you do meet all types. Maybe one day the angelic chorus will sing and they will see the light. I'll wish upon a whole constellation that that day comes soon. [/QUOTE]
