But what if everybody on this forum had a perfectly shaped body according to the standards of modern society?

You say that like most of our characters have these 'curves in the right places', or that we aren't at least somewhat naturally curvy. xD

She is in her late teens and is skillfully working on project 'Lazing around'. She appears to have average strength.

"At first glance it seems this girl is still in high school. But, alas, she is a college student. Her big brown eyes curve downwards on the inside which, coupled with a very slight monolid and lightly tanned, olive-toned skin, give her a slight Asian appearance. She has full lips, usually chapped. Her brown hair reaches to just below her chest (which is mostly flat) and is straight as a board; it is parted on her left side. She stands at 5'8" and is quite skinny, especially her wrists. Her right hip protrudes more than her left hip. If she's sitting or lying down, chances are she is also experiencing lower limb motor restlessness, and she's probably also slouching. If she's standing, she probably has no idea what to do with her arms, or where to look.

In social situations she can often be found standing around listening to people with a rather blank stare. When she does bother to get involved in a conversation, it's usually to spout off facts, insert some deadpan humor, or complain/rant. Her voice has very little inflecion to it most of the time, and is low and does not project well. She seems to awkwardly stumble over her words every so often; this especially happens if she is giving a presentation or speaking to a crowd. However, give her a clarinet and an audience and she exudes confidence."

She wears:

cotton hoodie - a zip-up hoodie made of thick cotton fabric
iron-framed spectacles - black-rimmed glasses with semirectangular lenses; the frame only goes around the top half of the lenses, and is thicker about the sides
cotton shirt - a black t-shirt with a graphic on the front
silver diamond necklace - a thin white-gold chain with a cross-shaped pendant in which is set several small sparkling diamonds
stainless steel bracelet - a bracelet made of stainless steel links with little "charms" on each link; it fits snugly around her wrist
stainless steel boyfriend watch - a stainless steel watch with a lavender watch face and white rhinestones set around the edge; it fits snugly around her wrist
silver ring - a silver-and-black band encircling one finger, set with a white stone
denim trousers - long trousers made of denim
knit cotton socks - a pair of loose-fitting socks, ribbed around the ankle to keep them from falling off
leather boots - a pair of grey suede boots tied with laces and with a slightly-heeled rubber sole; they rise to just above the ankle

You can see her holding:
a new clarinet
an often-used umbrella
a used laptop

Skills
Clarinet - skillfully
Tailoring - efficiently
Cooking - efficiently
Gardening - novicely
Fighting - novicely
Farming - awkwardly
Fishing - awkwardly
Hunting - awkwardly
Pretty much all other useful Cantr skills - awkwardly

She is in her early thirties and skilfully working on resting on garden seat.

A very tall and skinny, young woman with blond hair reaching onto her shoulders. Her eyes are bright blue with long dark lashes and her face shows a warm smile. She has a long strong body, although muscled very feminine with all the curves in the right places :D She can be often found playing her violin in the pub or at parties, but also seems to enjoy being alone very much. Around her nice house in the midst of town she grows lots of flowers and vegetables.

She wears:
- a sherbet-colored maxi dress in hand tie dye with a gorgeous halter and open back, tied down in the waist with a strap to show of the wearers figure and ever-flowing around the ankles.
- flip flops

You can see her holding:
- an oft-used violin
- a new book
- an old shovel
- a brand new travelbag
- a cup of tea

A man in his twenties.

He is 5 foot 9 inches tall, with short dark brown hair and almond-shaped dark blue eyes which have green around the middle. He is naturally pale although his face, neck, arms and hands are currently tanned, whilst he has light brown freckles on his face and dark brown freckles on parts of his body, as well as a small cluster on one of his cheeks. He is slightly overweight, but has recently begun losing that weight.

He is wearing black glasses with rectangular lenses, red cotton shorts, a grey and black t-shirt and boxers.

I'm not too sure about the skills.
