You said the player was arguing that they should be exempt from Charisma checks due to the appearance.Regardless of charisma, I can certainly imagine in-game situations in which appearance could provide a benefit or penalty - advantage or disadvantage on a CHA check, for example. You might offer a really  hideous character advantaage on some intimidation checks, for example, or a beautiful character disadvantage on deception checks because the bartender got scammed by pretty people in the past. I'll note that you have very different players than I do. I haven't seen anyone ever arguing for or feeling entitled to advantages. The DM sets the DC and determines if advantage or disadvantage applies.</blockquote>
