[QUOTE="MGibster, post: 8900258, member: 4534"] I remember discussing with my friends that the women on the cover of the Rifts core rulebook only had a physical beauty of 14. All three of them look like super models in a one piece bathing suit and we were thinking, "If tha's a 14, what's an 18?" I know others have mentioned it, but beauty is subjective. There was a video I saw of a Korean woman on Youtube telling us that in her country she was fat, her lips were too big, and she wasn't considered all that attractive, but holy cow, she was beatiful. What would beauty mean for an orc, elf, or halfling let alone other human nations? From what I can recall, there are only three standards of beauty that are near universal: Youth, clear skin, symmetrical features. And of course Charisma is meant to represent force of personality. I've known plenty of people who were easy on the eyes but didn't have much of a personality to speak of. No, like payn, I want my ugly pirate with a wicked scar across his face to exude personality.
