Default Most inherently sexy fantasy race?

What it says on the tin. You can of course pick more than one, but the rule is that you have to provide at least some reason as to why, for example, I might say Mind Flayers, because of their slimy green/purple skin and tentacles.

Edit: Ah, I should also point out that this is perfectly subjective; i.e. Nymph and Succubus don't automatically 'win' just because they're basically fluffed as being the sexiest things imaginable.

...apart from sex-related evil Outsiders (Succubi/Pleasure Devils/Lilitu)?

On second thought, the art of the Lilitu is pretty hideous.

Succubi, anyone?

Oh yeah, reasons. Well, they are kind of designed to have sex with everyone they encounter, so... yeah.... also the shapechanging allows them to fulfill many fantasies. Those are pretty good reasons, right?

EDIT: My last post 5 minutes ago was Swordsage//ninja'd, now this one? What are the forums coming to?

I'd still go for humans. A druid can do everything below and more.

I'd lean away from going for a demon. The thought that they may later kill me would be an annoyance.

Edit. Basically, no weird consequences if you go for humans. Plus I find humans sexy. Inherently.

MMMyeah... another vote for "humans". because, let's face it... every sexy image is sexy because it reminds you of a sexy human.

Or a large schnitzel, but that's just Freud talking.

Hmm, more or less, but it can get a little more specific than that, for example, someone might say halflings or some kind of fey because of their potentially childlike physiques (yeah, yeah, everyone has their own sickness; we aren't here to judge people for their flaws). And while humans are all well and good, I think a lot of people have their own ideas of things that would make humans 'better', like pointy ears or a cat tail.

I am gonna say Nymph... because looking at it can kill you.

My second is Atropal... no I am not a creepy pedo/necrophile, but I am a DM and there is no better way to end your 2 year long campaign that just hit epic than this giant baby.

.... maybe give them a giant baby rattle of 50 charges Mordikain's Disjuction. Ooooh that's sexy.

Mmm, I tend to think along those lines too. I might go with minotaur ('cause I like the idea of women who can overpower me (possibly because I never see any in real life)), and the thought of a big, muscly, beast girl with horns is... interesting.

Edit: Blast it! Ninja'd by a terrible pun...

Very nice , but the insect physiology might be slightly problematic.

I'm surprised no one's said anything like catfolk... or even vampire .

I sincerely doubt it. Physiology is only an obstacle for those without imagination and/or thoughtful partners.

If everybody would be thinking like that, DnD would be a very bland world indeed, what with it's missing collection of mongrelfolk, half breeds and various other spawns of humanity And while humans are all good and nice, I never put much faith in Zarus' dogma Apparently, neither has most of humanity in DnD and that makes me happy

As for the topic itself... apart from obvious answers, those being succubi, erinyes and nymphs(along with other more humanlike fey), I always found elves and half elves sexy. Though I have to agree with AslanCross here, the art of lilithu is quite hideous. They are supposed to be an upgraded succubi and the one illustrated in FC I looks like an aged woman with hooves. What the fudge? Give me a regular succubus with a night gown, straight out of MM

A Hobgoblin would be hot in a "schoolteacher" kind of way. An Allip wouldn't care what I looked like or what my hobbies were, which would be nice (sanity? Who needs it?). And I'd fail my save against a Nixie's Charm Person every time, if you know what I mean.

Vamperic Dragon with Robe of Gentle Repose

Not only does it have the whole sexy Vampire vibe going for it, it can breed with anything (anything) and it can take any shape you can think of. The robe of Gentle Repose makes it able to continue breeding after undeath (source BoEF).
