"Rates six centiHelens."

I don't get that one?

Her character was not happy when I introduced an attractive female NPC before, and this evil priestess is way more attractive than the previous NPC.

To this PC

"She makes <attractive NPC> look like, well...you."


Honestly though a picture's worth a thousand words.

I was thinking that - this priestess makes her look like a man.

Keeping it short and to the point is good for another reason: the more description you give, the more likely they are to assume that she's extra important. Like, say, a villian they don't know about yet...

It's a face that can launch 60 ships. For paragon tier, upgrade to 60 centiHelens.

This is kind of an important point. For instance in the description I originally posted I assumed that she was a known villian and tried to sum up unique evil and beautiful all in one sentence. The words you choose set the tone of what your players will initially think about her, whether they should be suspicious, fearful, awed, or at ease et c.

Of course since you've put her in the beautiful as a goddess catagory they'll probably assume she's important no matter what.

First impressions are important.

True - she is quite important within her evil church, and may have an offer to make the PCs in the "enemy of my enemy is my friend" (temporarily) vein...

Sounds like fake, (or real) Will rolls are in order. While grinning evilly behind your DM screen.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I had a DM pull out a picture of an NPC my character was romancing once. I personally wasn't impressed but I decided my character was.
