Not to be a shallow, but why the embargo on attractive NPC's? I'm not saying all NPC's should be attractive. Like the multitude of ugly, that would also negatively effect immersion. However, we could use more hotties than just the one comely female representative for Elite German Commander's minor faction.......
NPC attractiveness is a rare commodity in the Elite Universe.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.. Some people like the look of Barry Humphries in a cleopatra wig.
Im not one of them though...

Someone finally said it, I'm glad. At this point I would settle for unattractive but not weird looking NPCs, because right now many of them just look flat out strange. I'm telling you right now that ED doesn't hold a candle to Star Trek, we need to fix this!

The only decent looking one I ever had was named Cara, decent as in, not weird looking; She was by no means hot. I leveled her up to Dangerous or Deadly, I forget. Anyway, Cara died at the hand of the Thargoids in the midst of a terrible battle and I lost my best pilot ever. I hunt bugs for two reasons, humanity, and for Cara. I shall avenge thee!
They've all had their DNA warped because they live outside of Earth's protective biosphere, atmosphere, and van allen belts. This is what happens when you put humans outside of their natural environment. Pretty sure I've noticed that humans that live on agriculture stations with regular access to ELW environs have smoother skin and are generally more attractive looking. Or at leas less strange looking.

We kinda had those but for some reason they got mostly replaced by the 2 major clone types :
I can only guess someone thought "maybe these guys will stop complaining about forced NPC Iron Man if they look weird or ugly"
- creepy/weird looking male type
- "boxing champion of 3296" female type

Also, the more aligned you are with a minor faction, the older and more senior rep takes up residents in the contacts. Hence the more wrinkly and deformed from a lifetime of radiation exposure. When are you allied status, that's when the NPCs become truly goblin like. It's like a punitive reward.
I personally blame the great Performance Enhancer Deluge of a few years ago. Remember when it was PEs alldayerrydayerrywares?

Time to adjust the BGS then.
What we have (if we are lucky, which isn't saying much)
What we want:
Not all NPCs (obviously), but we could use more Mavia Kains and Aisling Duvals in the Elite World and less Tatum Keiths
Stay thirsty my friends

I thought this thread was about hot looking NPC ships. Count me as disappointed.
Oh, the ships are bursting with sexy ...
I'm beginning to think there's something wrong with me: I'm starting to find Felicity Farseer is attractive.
That's what starts to happen when the options are so limited... HA!
