They gotta be FOINNNNNE if they wanna be played. Or at least cute.

[Beerfish]

Not a huge deal for me.  It's more important that I like the look of the companions.

[Akkos]

As far as my female Inquisitor has long hair and make up... I'm ok with it.

 

I don't normally play female characters.... but when I do.. I use all makeup possible... excessive darken beize eye shadow, lip always red/orange. And then less Blush.

 

I spend more time customizing elvens though.

 

I also like my male characters to have beards or heavy dark stubble........ I tend to make them very manly. While a female warrior is always with a tattoo in the face.

[RebbyWriter]

I like "Quirky Pretty" or, at they say in the modeling world, "Ugly Pretty."

 

I will make someone that seems very barbie but take one or two features and make them more unique. A lady with a Streisand nose or a guy with a butt chin. These are things that people might not not to see on a character that they have to look at all the time but I find it easier to create a believable story and personality is they aren't all plastic perfect.

I like for my characters to be attractive if only for the moments when NPC's start flirting with him or her and start commenting on how attractive they are. It is however fun to make the ugliest character possible and have them flirt with every character under the sun

[Ceoldoren]

I want her to look human, and she's a surface dwarf working for the carta. So I'm gonna give her a pretty big scar. Hopefully a longish hair with the sides shaved, and one of the neat Dwarf tattoos 

[BraveVesperia]

I like my characters to look attractive, but I'm happy to shake up what I consider attractive. A few of my Wardens/Hawkes I would consider more 'striking' or 'interesting', rather than pretty.

 

I certainly wouldn't make one like 'Beauty' and genuinely want to play through the full game.

[taviastrife]

Well, it kind of depends on how I'm feeling while creating the character.  In DA:O, I tended to make fairly attractive characters, but that's measuring attractiveness by my standards, which I don't consider that extensive.  It's really subjective in a lot of ways.

 

Also, since origin stories are back, I'll probably try to make my Inquisitor's appearance appropriate to their backgrounds.  I'm thinking of doing an elven mage; she'll be somewhat lanky, have tattoes, and have rugged eyes.  The main thing I usually tone way down is the make-up options.  I don't like a ton of make-up, preferring something more subtle or none at all.

[PsychoBlonde]

Nahh. I mean, attractiveness is pretty subjective.

I had a dwarf with weathered skin, and I headcanon'd him having a broken nose and a gnarly scar on his lip. I still thought he was plenty attractive.

 

Yep, pretty much this.  I don't find lip-glossed, made-up teenagers attractive in the FIRST place.

 

DA2 drove me NUTS because I wanted Hawke to look age-appropriate for her family and if I used the complexion slider I liked she looked OLDER than her MOTHER--and if I used the next one down she looked YOUNGER than CARVER.  So, yeah, I like having lots of options to add character to my character.  Subtle is better.  This is the first face I made with the DA2 character creator:

 

[CENIC]

I gave my human noble and Circle mage Warden smooth complexions and other "attractive" features because they were supposed to be young and (until the events of the game) hadn't been through many hardships.
My dwarf commoner Warden was rougher-looking because he'd had a rough life, but I don't know that I'd say he was a unattractive because of it.

I used the default Hawke because I fell in love with her, she's gorgeous. So admittedly I fell for the eye candy there.

In Inquisition I'd like to get back to creating characters whose faces reflect their story. My planned Inquisitors will be older than my Wardens and will have more life experience. I know I definitely want to give my Qunari mercenary warrior some scars!

[WidePaul]

When I'm making male characters, I tend to make them look at least vaguely like myself. Which isn't hugely attractive, though I wouldn't say I'm ugly. Just somewhat ordinary.

When I make female characters, they certainly lean towards what I find attractive, but I generally don't try to make them into perfect examples of beauty. Things like scars, the odd sign of aging, sometimes a slightly "odd" bit of shape to part of the face, maybe in Inq. I'll throw in a slightly broken nose on one and so on.

Oh, and freckles? Well, they definitely fall into the "attractive as possible" category

This is what I do too, though I will always make at least one character who is fugly as heck, for fun, to see how crazy the cc will let me go.

[Devil's Avocado]

It really depends on the character. For the most part I prefer my characters to look fit yet flawed since most of them should have had some signs of a rough life. I have made conventionally attractive characters before but only when it suited my character's persona such as a rogue who used her beauty and charm to get her way along with her blade skills.

 

As for my main, I'm just glad we can finally have freckles

[budzai]

I make a guy who is look like me (as much as I can which not always work)... attractive or not? I just don't give a f***

[Captain Nimbaud]

I'm shallow without knowing it when it comes to character creation. I'll intend to make a character with a unique and interesting look and end up with a damn model every time.

[Darkly Tranquil]

For me it depends on the character in question. I tend to start with a concept of who the character will be, and then the face develops from the cues the personality/backstory I have in mind gives me. A human noble character will most likely be classically beautiful/handsome (having lived a life of luxury with good food and health care), while a city elf or casteless dwarf is likely to be much rougher looking due to having lived a much harder life. That said, my human noble Inquisitor is likely to be more of the rugged, scarred, badass type as it goes with the character concept I have in mind.

[Gill Kaiser]

Depends on the character, but I generally like my characters to look attractive but unglamorous.

[I WANT YOU TO FUCK ME JERY]

I usually go for a character that could be called attractive, but not 'cute' per se. I've had exceptions before, but I prefer them to look the part. I'd say my Warden was pretty, but I tried to get some rough edge to her at the same time. She was Dalish, so while she had attractive features I thought it would be best to beset that with some things fitting for someone who's lived outdoors her whole life, like a fairly nasty bear-claw shaped scar down the left side of her face via mods.

My most recent Hawke, post-act 2, meanwhile, I think was just a downright smexy mofo. Didn't really go for anything there. He was groomed and noble. :S



I guess my female Qunari will follow a similar mindset as I had while making my Warden. Hence why I don't really mind the hairstyles tbh.

[Will-o'-wisp]

Depends on the character, but most of the time they're pretty attractive. smooth Skin, young, attractive features. At least they're always beautiful to me. Some probably wouldn't like my more exotic bald, tattooed, and scarred creations, but the features are always pretty beautiful. I like to mix up ethnicities, races, gender and personality though, so I have a huge variety of different looks that I can try.

[Wulfram]

I like my characers to be attractive, but also interesting.

[Vox Draco]

I'll try to make my chars always as attractive by my standards as possible .. why? Because I probably spend many, many hours watching them in cutscenes andbattles and whatnot, my eyes demand this or they would rebel!

 

Also, it's way harder to make something eye-appealing than create an utterly misshapen monster-char (just run amok with any slider, or use the dreaful randomize-options!!). So creating a good looking char is part of the challenge any RPGs offers to me   And I like all the scars-option and stuff...just sayin'

[GenericEnemy]

Well, I make them attractive to me in particular. Some people find smooth, clean shaven softer men attractive but I've always thought grizzled, bearded guys are much more attractive and they fit well with the setting. So win win for me.

[KBomb]

Since I believe you can have both badassery and beauty, I make attractive characters.

If I kicked ass for a living, you better believe I would do it wearing lip gloss and looking fierce.

[Stiler]

I like to make my character look appealing to me in terms of what I want my character to portray.

 

I'm the type of player that will spend an hour+ in character creation shaping my character and tweaking it to get it "just right," especially in rpgs like DA or Mass effect where you see their face a lot and there's a lot of dialogue.

 

Scars or tattoo's I will use IF I find them visually appealing and fitting for the character I want to make.

 

If I'm making say, a gruff warrior I will try to give him a scar or something (obviously he'd likely have one over his years of fighting).

[LukaCrosszeria]

I'll also make my inquisitor attractive to me, I'm going to be looking at him for hours on end after all.

[aphelion4]

They must be attractive to me. I'm incredibly vain so I wouldn't be able to play an ugly character long. I spend hours in the character creator and won't move on unless it's perfection. I do however try to keep the appearance fitting with the setting, so dirt, scars, etc if available. No bright, hot pink makeup or barbie doll hair or anything. XD
