Yeah.  Which is why I recommended changing it, unless you have a
player who *wants* to create another character.

Of course, not too many PCs are actually going to let Beautiful Girl
convince them that the three masked guys were a "prank."  But then
again, with a typical PC, Beautiful Girl would change her tactics.
Instead of a break-in at the apartment (a body found there might
eventually get connected to her), it'd be a mugging near the
aforementioned bridge . . . the PC being appropriately distracted by
her [ahem!] intimate attentions.

In any case, one experience with THIS Beautiful Girl should make
Eris's players forever careful of "casual" pickups!
