(hauling out the soapbox)
It has long bothered me that CRPG designers seem to think their main audience is male and probably young males at that. After playing Wizardry 6 and spending eons writing a walkthru that is still kicking around on the web, I refused to play Wiz 7 because of the excessive "onesided" nudity and the implied connection between beautiful females and evil that had been in Wiz 6. W&W has many of the same elements with a couple of exceptions. You have Pris who is basically a good and kind character who is also ugly and you have Kerah and >>SPOILER<< she is, later in the game, too easily turned evil. All the other good female characters have very small roles. All the other major female roles are evil. So to me there is more than equal opporunity eye candy issues going on here.
