Beauty as a Prime Attribute

[nightstorm]

I wonder how some examples of how Beauty is used as a Prime Attribute or is it?
Does it even work that way? The character sheet generator indicates it works like all the others.

What's in the CK suggests it only provides an attribute modifier (same scale as normal attribute modifiers, added to level|HD, con, cha, and wis) which is the CL for a save vs. the person or monster's Charm ability. The only charm ability for PCs mentioned is one that is received with a Beauty attribute of 18 (according to table 1.6), though presumably a CK might find other uses (including the influence ability gained at Beauty=16 on table 1.6).

I personally wouldn't use this CL for things like class abilities which fascinate, embolden, intimidate or the like, or for charm spells, the triple bonus is pretty powerful.

Since it's used for a CL, there isn't any use for a Prime, but you could open it for prime/non-prime if you think your campaign has a lot of use for such a thing. I think it might overshadow the above mentioned bard, knight, barbarian, wizard, and illusionist abilities and spells if used for straight up charm and fascination.

Thanks for answering, but I must be drunk or something because I didn't understand anything you said.

I think I was sober when I typed it!

Do you own the CKG?
