Do you prefer to play ugly characters? Or attractive characters?

I have a hard time visualizing ugly people, unless they have like misshapen or awkwardly proportioned bodies, and then it's hard to imagine them adventuring

I like playing as cute girls

If I’m feeling ugly then someone pretty, if I’m feeling like a hunk then I play as someone comedic looking. Dunno if that counts.

Why do you only post ugly characters?

I almost always play Warforged, so it depends on if the crafter had a thing for sex bots or not.

Depends on the character concept but most of my characters tend to be average or attractive. One of my favorite characters was a necromancer that suffered burns all over her body and wore a porcelain mask to cover her face. One day I will remake her now that I know how to properly use the insanity mechanics.

I like making "ugly" characters but more in the they look like just mundane, normal ass people kinda way. Like they have unflattering features, but they're not like monstrously deformed.

Attractively ugly

Isn't most PC art available at least somewhat attractive usually?

My AD&D2e female tiefling (started as a male dwarf, Reincarnated randomly into a tiefling since the cleric couldn't cast Raise Dead but had a Reincarnate scroll), ended up with a CHA of 22. Rolled a 17, plus a result on the Tiefling random abilities table that gave +1d6 CHA.So a literally supernaturally charismatic extraplanar female. With cat-slit eyes, pointed ears, wings, and tail. OBVIOUSLY she's hot as fuck, and I will never apologize for that, as it resulted from gameplay.

Attractive.
Because I enjoy fantasy games.

Usually dead average, or at the very least, average enough that whether or not they are ugly or attractive is entirely dependent on the person seeing them.
To be honest, a lot of the time I don't even get art of my characters, I just describe them as "oh yeah he's a lanky dude with brown hair in his mid 30s" and that's it.

No preference, but average is boring. And it doesn't just apply to Dream Pod 9's Appearance stat. Had a blast playing a PF 1st edition 3 Intelligence sorcerer. Had a blast playing a wizard's that's opposed.As long as I've got a weakness that does show up from time-to-time, be it a stat, a flaw like Shadowrun's Codes of Honor (God I loved that one) and remain mechanically viable / can contribute meaningfully, I'm golden.> DPDND

I have no preference, it depends on my character concept for the day.

Anon10/16/25, 14:56No.96766648
I have no charisma and can't competently roleplay it so 90% of the time ugly or monster characters. I don't try to flirt in-character etc and leave that for other players too. I guess my characters would come across as ugly and asexual or autistic.

I'm a self-inserter, so attractive characters.

All My characters are androgynous twinkmen who are extremely racist against subhumans.

I don't play self inserts, so I only play pretty people. Why would I ever choose to be ugly? It's worse in every possible way.

Anon10/18/25, 19:43No.96783360
It's more about the character concept than anything else. Some concepts work better with attractive characters, some with unattractive characters, and some work best with thoroughly average looking characters.I'm often pigeonholed into being party face, so I play more pretty people than ugly, but that's not entirely by choice.
