| Inhumanly Beautiful Race | comment |
The Inhumanly Beautiful Race is a fictional non-human species that is always, nearly without fail, incredibly good-looking. Not only are they good-looking, but they tend to be described as better-looking than the vast majority of humans could ever hope to be. When describing their beauty, authors tend to use terms like "inhuman", "otherworldly" and "ethereal". Depending on the author, such a species may inspire either simple chaste appreciation or immediate and profound arousal. In extreme cases, their looks are so incredible as to act as almost a form of glamour, instantly becoming the center of attention (and desire) everywhere they go. While this concept can be found in all forms of media, usually this works best in a non-visual medium. With a novel, the reader can imagine their own ideal of beauty. In visual media, it may become a case of a subjective judgement of Informed Attractiveness, especially since "inhumanly beautiful" often translates as rail-thin, pronounced cheekbones, pale skin, high-femininity if female, androgyny if male, and other features that aren't going to be everyone's cup of tea. Elves and (humanoid) Angels almost invariably fall under this trope, and The Fair Folk are often included. Physical Gods can easily do so. In recent years, Vampires have also increasingly been portrayed as having inhuman hotness and allure, in contrast to older versions where they looked more like walking corpses. And it goes without saying for succubi. Not incubi, though, as they're usually depicted as a kind of rapist gargoyle-creature. Some interpretations of sirens go this route, although other interpretations make any perceived beauty only a result of Glamour or Mind Control and the Siren's true form ugly. If they have children with humans or some other "okay-looking" group, their children may benefit from Mixed Ancestry is Attractive. Compare The Beautiful Elite, which is this in terms of a social class rather than a race, though not necessarily to the point of seeming inhuman. Also compare Sculpted Physique, which can sometimes overlap with this trope as characters with a sculpted physique are designed to be aesthetically pleasing yet visibly inhuman. In order to make this not subjective, examples should only be of cases where the race is described as being this In-Universe, either in the narration or by other characters. |

On the more nonhuman end, Companions in Heralds of Valdemar are angels in the shape of horses and rarely appear in a book without someone's narration rhapsodizing about how good they look, unless the Companion's actively trying to appear to be an ordinarily pretty horse. Beauty Equals Goodness is invoked, as no one not actively fighting a Companion can look on their ethereal super-beauty and not believe they're good. | |

Elves in Dragon Age are often regarded by humans as extremely beautiful and ethereal, despite their low status and the hostility between them. They are known for their big eyes, thin frame, and soft features, which give them quite a distinctive appearance. According to Zevran in Dragon Age: Origins, the Antivan Crows train elves as assassins due to their beauty, making it easier to lure human targets. | |

Unicorns, in The Last Unicorn, are the most beautiful creatures on earth. When circumstances change one of them into a young woman, she is more lovely than anyone has ever seen... but the mystical quality of her beauty fades as her humanity increases, and by the end she is just a pretty girl. | |

The demonic Kialli in Michelle West's The Sun Sword books are inhumanly beautiful. In the same author's Chronicles of Elantra books, it is the immortal Barrani who are repeatedly described as perfect. The Kialli are inhuman and their bodies are whatever they can force the Earth to give them, so they're limited by the combination of how much power they have and how much they care. Most are going more for terrifying than pretty. |

Nobilis: Angels (who personify and promote beauty), and Excrucians (who are a race of Affably Evil Humanoid Abominations who desire to Ret-Gone reality and return it to the Primordial Chaos they came from) are both embodiments of beauty for differing reasons-Angels are like this because Beauty is what they are and desire from others (to the exclusion of everything else), while Excrucians embody the primal majesty and unfettered elegance of alien stars. | |

Amira from Rage of Bahamut: Genesis is a nephilim. She is much prettier than any human woman in the show. The reason for this is that she is half an angel, and angels qualify for this trope. | |

The Old World of Darkness gameline Changeling: The Dreaming has the sidhe. At character creation, the sidhe automatically apply two dots to their Appearance score. As Appearance automatically starts at 1 and normally is capped at 5, this means every sidhe ranges from Appearance 3 ("Hey, he's kinda cute.") to Appearance 7 ("I worship at your feet, my lady!"). | |

Humanx Commonwealth: The Pitar in Dirge are an alien race who look like amazingly beautiful, perfectly muscular humans with a broader range of hair and eye colors. This makes for a much smoother First Contact than humans had with the Insectoid Alien Thranx, so public opinion quickly shifts towards the Pitar. They turn out to be genocidal Absolute Xenophobes. | |

In The Daevabad Trilogy, the djinn are very attractive in general, but djinn enslaved by the ifrit are ridiculously, unsettlingly beautiful. This is explicitly part of the curse, as a slave djinn is forced to fulfil all orders and desires of the human who holds their vessel, and the entire setup is meant to be destructive to the humans and hell for the djinn. | |

The Veela in Harry Potter. They are beautiful women with long silver-blond hair, blue eyes, shining skin, and perfect teeth. However, they have supernatural powers to seduce men and hypnotise them, so it is possible that Harry's description of them is a little exaggerated. They have one downside, though: piss them off and they turn into crazy bird monsters that throw fire at you. Interestingly, male veela are never mentioned though they presumably must exist; one important character, Fleur, is one-quarter veela, so a human/veela pairing clearly dilutes the genes. Word of God says that Fleur later has a son who would be one-eighth veela; Fanon tends to make him into a Pretty Boy. |

The Abh of Crest of the Stars are all described as looking very beautiful. It's a by-product of the fact that they're all genetically engineered: any physical "defects", no matter how slight, are cleared up prior to birth. Interestingly, this means that in Abh culture, beauty isn't considered very important. Calling an Abh beautiful is like calling the sky blue: it's a fact, not a compliment. Therefore Abh generally strive to be seen as elegant, which requires certain behaviors rather than genetic traits.' | |

Most vampires (except the Black Court) in The Dresden Files take on good-looking forms, but the White Court vampires are an embodiment of Vampires Are Sex Gods meets Inhumanly Beautiful Race. Most of the fae are also described this way. Both the Winter fae and the White Court use their smoldering sex appealnote if they could be any more smoldering they would literally be on fire to prey on humans; Summer fae are just as beautiful, but typically more wholesome. | |

Kushiel's Legacy: The nation of Terre d'Ange was founded by a small group of angels who interbred with their human followers. Long after, the tiny fraction of angel blood in the d'Angeline people gives them life-long exceptional beauty — even the elderly look younger than they are and never go bald. The d'Angeline protagonist can't help but see outsiders as a bit coarse-looking. | |

The Elves of various kinds from World of Warcraft are often praised for their beauty by other characters. Though sometimes it's not praise, as they are beautiful in a feminine way. Humans and dwarves tend to insult blood elf men for being pretty. The extent to which Marshal Garithos does this in Warcraft III makes it seem like he's hiding something. But Muradin Bronzebeard does the same thing in the same game. The draenei are also particularly described this way, although as they look similar to demons they also tend to scare people (and draenei men are decidedly not effeminate: though many find them very attractive). Naaru are also described this way, mostly because several of the races regard the Light as holy and they are beings of the Light. Nature creatures such as dryads can sometimes get this too. The Dragons in the humanoid forms they create for themselves are also this. | |

Fan works set in Middle-earth may downplay or exaggerate the beauty of the elves. The Games of the Gods downplays it: when Rachel covers her Pointy Ears, humans accept her as an uncommonly beautiful human. Home with the Fairies exaggerates it: when Maddie first sees an elf, its "unnatural" and "inhuman" appearance overwhelms Maddie, who faints, perhaps because she is a transplant from a world that has no elves. | |

There are three examples in The Mortal Instruments. The shadowhunters qualify for it, although there are a few exceptions. Overall, they are considered very pretty. Even prettier are the fairies. Any fairy that looks human-like is described as very beautiful. The vampires are among them. When a human is turned into a vampire, he also gets prettier. |

Exalted Its version of The Fair Folk - Humanoid Abominations from outside reality that can imitate humanity better than actual humans can. Fair Folk Nobles start with a minimum of three in all their stats (on a scale where 2 is average), so it's literally impossible for them to have below-average looks. Their stats also naturally cap at 7, in a setting where 4 is the natural limit for normal people and 5 for demigodsnote This can be broken by special abilities, which are also available for the fair ones.. And they also have access to various charms to enhance their beauty and persuasiveness up with glamour. This trope can also readily apply to any magical being of sufficient power. Any Exalt who raises her permanent Essence score above 5 (which generally requires being at least a century old) also raises the cap for her other stats, including Appearance, to the same level. Special mention goes to the Abyssal Exalted, who are required when they raise their Essence to either let their Appearance decay until they look like monstrous undead or raise their Appearance to superhuman levels. |

Dungeons & Dragons: Nymphs are described as being so beautiful that they can make characters go blind just from seeing them. Elves, of course, tend to be very attractive. Even the drow (dark elves). Aasimar (humans with celestial ancestry) are nearly always described as this too; tall, slender, blonde or silver hair, naturally tanned... though sometimes they're described with features which are just a bit freaky. The Eberron Campaign Setting gives us Kalashtar, a near-human psionic race—and, of course, elves. The Inspired, Evil Counterparts of the kalashtar, are in the same vein. |

In Rocket Age the Martian royal castes and their courtesans are consistently described as being incredibly beautiful by human standards, with the towering Royals often being described in terms of their other-worldliness.

Galateids in Promethean: The Created are, to the last, made from the bodies of the young and beautiful who were unmarred by the process of death. This makes all social interactions a breeze, at least, until the Disquiet kicks in. The main reason they undertake the Pilgrimage is that it's no use being inhumanly beautiful and alluring if everyone's going to turn on you in the end. | |

The asari in Mass Effect are a feminine-seeming but technically genderless race of aliens with natural Biotic powers that mates by close telepathic contact and can do that with every known humanoid species in the galaxy, as the genetic material is taken from the mother and randomized by the father. Despite almost universally considering each other ugly, all the other species consider asari very attractive and as looking similar to them. The second game has a funny scene where a human, a turian, and a salarian are all watching an asari stripper and all three seem genuinely confused that either of the others has any interest in her note The human sees her as a beautiful woman with the only differences being blue skin and a crest instead of hair, the turian points to the head crest as making her look like a turian (to the player's eyes, the turian's is much spikier and while the asari's is gently curved), and the salarian doesn't give details but starts off the line of conversation by saying she looks exactly like a salarian (possibly due to the slender frame and eyes that are proportionately larger than a human's?). They then briefly speculate that she might be using psychic powers to make them all think she looks like a member of their own species, but the game never makes any other reference to this as a possibility . It even works on salarians, who reproduce as hives in which the vast majority of individuals are males that never have sex in their entire life, and also somehow seems to affect people who only see pictures or recordings of asari without being near one. The quarians seemed to have developed into this too, with various races finding them attractive (and a popular feature in 'Fornax'). This is even in spite of how all of them wear fairly-obscuring environmental suits (though these suits at least reveal their basic body shape and make their eyes visible). Even Javik notes that primitive quarians were considered attractive 50,000 years ago by his people. |

Non-corrupted Horus Heresy and Great Crusade era Space Marines who have not suffered great disfigurement are generally described as being beautiful to an obviously inhuman standard. This being 40k however, the idea's twisted just a little; the sheer visual difference of a Space Marine also further marks him as posthuman, and can easily veer into the Uncanny Valley. Start combining this with Chaos and things can get even weirder. | |

Rob in An Outcast in Another World is continually annoyed by how cover-model-worthy every single Elf he meets is. The Elves themselves don’t seem to notice and have no trouble calling members of their own race ugly. They also don’t seem to think Rob is unattractive, despite him being only slightly above average in appearance by Human standards. Rob can’t understand their standards in the slightest. | |

Trash of the Count's Family has multiple examples. Elves are described as all being incredibly beautiful, and the Whales are apparently even more beautiful than them. The Elf Pendrick is described as being more beautiful than even the Whales, however. While it's not clear if Dragons are especially beautiful or not, Eruhaben is described as the most gorgeous of all the Dragons as well as being far more beautiful than any Elf or Whale. | |

Percy Jackson and the Olympians has many characters who are the descendants of humans and Greek gods. It is mentioned that the children of Aphrodite (boys and girls) in most cases look very pretty. Percy Jackson himself is extremely attractive. Not very evident in his own pov, but when another character interacts with him she describes him to have the good looks of a Roman god. This is when Percy is rescued after having been on the run for weeks, is quite injured and covered in dirt. He is remarked to look nearly identical to his father, the sea god Poseidon. |

In Kimi No Na Iowa, even the least attractive shipgirl has "a comfortable cuteness" that is "innately blemish-free" such that most normals need makeup to match, and the beauty only goes up from there. Most of them inspire awe in normals that see them, though how much of this is due to being just that beautiful and how much is a passive mental effect is ambiguous. However, the "inhuman" part also comes into play as this beauty is such as to be Uncanny to some. | |

Elves again, in Lords and Ladies of the Discworld series, with a twist. Although they appear inhumanly beautiful (with emphasis on the ''inhuman''), they're really just projecting a Glamour on the inhabitants of other universes. When their glamour is removed, they are shown for what they really are: sad, pathetic deformed monsters. | |

Deconstructed with (what else?) A Song of Ice and Fire with the ridiculously pretty (and inbred) Targaryen family. Incest is an acceptable Valyrian practice, after all. The Lengii are described this way, being known for their great beauty, tallness (7-8' in height), and golden eyes. The Others are described as supernaturally beautiful, with milk white skin, and pale blue eyes. |

Every apple farm in Caves of Qud, has an apple farmer's daughter hanging around, and the first time the player looks at one they're hit with the "love" condition that lasts quite a while. However, an in-universe book, "The Artless Beauty", suggests that apple farmer's daughters are not, in fact, the attractive daughters of rustic starapple farmers, but members of a very attractive near-human species who like starapples, and so hang around and help starapple farmers. | |

Angels in The Bible typically appear this way when interacting with humans (though other passages suggest that this is merely A Form You Are Comfortable With). Unfortunately, it can also apply to the fallen angels—hence, St. Paul warns his followers in a letter that Satan often appears as a beautiful angel of light. | |

The elves from Magic: The Gathering's Lorwyn set. Their caste system runs on how beautiful they are, from the lowly Faultless to the ruling-class Perfect. Those that they deem not beautiful (i.e., every other race, as well as deformed or disgraced elves) are called "eyeblights" and are frequently hunted for sport. | |

Elves, again, in the Arcia Chronicles are exceptionally beautiful, which is justified by their species being many times older than humans, meaning that they represent the peak of humanoid evolution (frozen in time thanks to their immortality) while humans are still getting there. On the other hand, it is also deconstructed because perfect physique and looks means that all elves (of the same gender) look the same to humans, as their physical differences are so minimal that only fellow elves can spot them. Hair/eye color and clothes are the only way mortal races can tell elves they don't know personally apart. | |

In Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?, the gods are all naturally handsome and beautiful by mortal standards on top of radiating an aura that tells mortals that they're staring in the face of divinity. Even the Elderly Immortals like Goibniu are muscular with an Old Master look. Goddesses of love like Ishtar are on a whole other level, with Freya standing head and shoulders above the rest. Even Hephaestus, the goddess who the other gods call ugly, is merely less beautiful than the other gods due to being blind in one eye. | |

Warhammer 40,000: Eldar are said to look like beautiful humans, but also that they're so graceful it's creepy. This varies Depending on the Author; it's often said that they look very pretty at a distance, but suffer from the Uncanny Valley effect up close and move in a disturbing boneless way, like their fingers were worms. Non-corrupted Horus Heresy and Great Crusade era Space Marines who have not suffered great disfigurement are generally described as being beautiful to an obviously inhuman standard. This being 40k however, the idea's twisted just a little; the sheer visual difference of a Space Marine also further marks him as posthuman, and can easily veer into the Uncanny Valley. Start combining this with Chaos and things can get even weirder. See also Pretty Boy, which applies to the Blood Angels and pre-heresy Emperor's Children, particularly their Primarchs. |

Doctor Who: The Thals are described as this in the first Monster of the Week serial, "The Daleks". While both races mutated heavily due to radiation, the Daleks, who favoured environment suits, became hideous beings, while the Thals, who favoured a combination of gradual adaptation and anti-radiation drugs, became a race of beautiful, blond-haired people. It seems that the Thal men are especially beautiful, as Susan is shocked by the beauty of the first Thal she meets, calling him 'perfect', and Barbara has something of an off-screen romance with a known Thal beauty. Of course, this relies on heavy amounts of Informed Attractiveness - they are all very good-looking, but certainly not to unusual levels, and their taste in fashion is hilariously stupid. The Drahvin from "Galaxy 4", a race of beautiful blond female warriors, to contrast with the Rills (kind and noble creatures who look abhorrent to humans). |

In Twilight, all the vampires are described as being impossibly beautiful, with Edward being metaphorically referred to as a god. Depending on what they looked like as a human, they will become even more attractive after they've been turned into a vampire. Thus, the Cullens, who were already good-looking as humans, became drop-dead gorgeous as vampires, whereas James, a vampire who's described as average looking, was most likely unattractive back in his human life. | |

Yet again, Elves in the Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini. Their beauty is often described as angular and delicate looking while emitting a sense of great strength. The elves' inhuman beauty is referred to several times throughout the series and some elves go as far as to modify their appearance and attributes using magic. They are stated to be beautiful without exception and are noted as being of flawless skin, hair, and figure. | |

In New World of Darkness: The whole Daeva clan from Vampire: The Requiem. In their Clan Book it is stated that they're "stronger, faster and sexier than you". Even before the embrace, they are already attractive humans; after it, they become inhumanly beautiful, partly because of their discipline, Majesty, that allows them to bedazzle people with their presence. The clan book does make a point of the fact that anyone who knows enough about the Daeva (including the Daeva themselves) tends to find something off about them because their beauty is artificial and they are incapable of love. One of the illustrators noted that the Daeva are essentially sex objects rather than people. Galateids in Promethean: The Created are, to the last, made from the bodies of the young and beautiful who were unmarred by the process of death. This makes all social interactions a breeze, at least, until the Disquiet kicks in. The main reason they undertake the Pilgrimage is that it's no use being inhumanly beautiful and alluring if everyone's going to turn on you in the end. Then there are the Fairest from Changeling: The Lost. Remade as lovers and playthings to the Gentry, they are beautiful to the last (though not all of them in the most conventional sense), extremely skilled at social interaction, and have a buy-in with the Contracts of Vainglory, which ramp up their beauty and influence to superhuman levels. |

In the world of ElfQuest, most humans tend to feel this way about the elves (See image, above.) It sometimes provokes humans to extreme behavior, for good or evil. | |
