Day 7/7: Not young, not thin, not pretty
As 
therealsnape recently pointed out, the standards for conventionally attractive characters mean that they're often young, thin, and pretty. Let's finish the week by brainstorming all the other qualities that might make our Beholder characters attractive--physical or otherwise, to us personally, or to the characters we create. Do you (or your characters) like Krum's hooked nose, or Minerva's combination of gravitas and dry humor, or Arabella's sense of whimsy, or a face with character, or a stocky frame? Let us know!
