APPEARANCE
Discussion: Appearance measures a character’s capacity to influence peoples’ reactions by virtue of her physical looks and demeanor. It’s not an absolute measure of a character’s attractiveness. Rather, it represents how adept she is at using her looks to affect those around her. Characters use Appearance when they want to intimidate, inspire or attract others using their physical looks alone.
Trait Effects: A character with Appearance 1 is the classic wallflower. People don’t pay her any attention unless she says something. A character with Appearance 3 is poised and physically arresting. She can speak volumes with a single look or a cocked eyebrow. A character with Appearance 5 is unnerving to be around. People have a hard time paying attention to anything else when she’s in the room.
