Ugly characters?

Just starting out in Everquest again and I have to say that it's really hard to get re-adjusted to the old style character models. I guess I'm kinda vain at heart, but I feel that it's important to be proud of your character's look, especially if you're going to be dedicated to it for a long period of time.

First I thought maybe a big, ogre warrior would be a cool idea... then I found out that even at end game decked out with full plate armor they still just look like babies in pajamas. Trolls aren't much better, and they run like they're trying to hold in a loaf between their butt cheeks while dashing to the toilet.

Human females have all the charisma of a woman made of legos, and female high elves look like someone forgot to draw in most of their face, etc.


So I guess my question is... what types of character(s) do YOU think look good in Everquest? Any particular favorites? Any that you absolutely hate?


Maybe I can be persuaded with some opinions. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It's a matter of preference, you should be able to decide for yourself after perusing the character creation menu for awhile. I like the bestial races personally, the trolls in particular. Bear in mind that diversity is of especial significance in this regard, not all characters are supposed to be some romanticized archetype of hero or villain. As for models I absolutely hate, the answer can only be each and every washed-out, awkward, plasticene travesty included in the Luclin expansion.

If you're incapable of deciding for yourself, I'd say you sound like someone who would play an elf...probably a dark elf.
