You have been called many things in your life; heart-breaker, beauty, vision, looker, and so on. From birth, your life has been defined by your extraordinary good looks. You have always been the pretty one. Not the smart one or the talented one, but always the pretty one. Regardless of your skills and talents, everyone leaves your presence thinking about your looks above all else.
Your beauty has served you well so far. It made you a favorite among your family, peers, and clan. It has meant that you were protected from chores that were dangerous or dirty. Your looks have garnered you the promise of good marriage prospects without any regard for your skills or abilities.

Your extraordinary good looks cause people to regard you differently. People make many positive assumptions about you. They assume you are a good leader and, when given a choice, will promote you to leadership positions. They remember you as being smarter, wittier, and even taller than you really are.
A Charisma (persuasion) check of 10 will cause free drinks and food to be sent your way. This benefit never extends to your less attractive friends.
Invitations to social gatherings are quick to clutter your doorstep. Upon arrival, the most favorable seating arrangements are made for you.
Unfortunately, your looks also garner less wanted attention. Endless flirtation by people above and below your station becomes exhausting. Attempts to bribe you into bed make you feel more like a product than a person. Lastly true love is hard to find when everyone thinks they love you at first sight.
