Not really. Showing their sacrifice directly on their countenance goes directly against what the sacrifice tried to achieve. For a charismatic, beautiful and graceful thief, I would prefer to see the price she paid shown in a big meltdown, when her all her plans and schemes fail and, frustrated beyond belief, she finally lets the facade fall and shows her ugly, hurt, true face for all to see.
The problem is that beauty in the form we are talking about doesn't work that way.
Models, Idols, Fashionistas, and other image conscious girls, and boys though to a lesser extent, literally destroy their bodies to look that way. It may not show in their countenance, obviously, but it would show on any physical activity they try to participate in. Beautiful, graceful, charismatic thief?
Let's talk about the example I know the most about. One of the most important parts of a girl's image are her legs. Something that most men don't understand, however, is that a girl's leg look completely different with heels and without heels. Most girls who care enough for their appearance use not only some kind of heels but, also, padding inside their shoes not only to look taller but to shape their legs and their posture in the way that looks best by tensing her muscles and distributing weight differently. This is even more important given the best leg length to total height ratio puts leg length above fifty-five percent of the total height, and ratios were leg length is below fifty percent are considered pretty much "you are ugly and can't do anything about it, live with it. Or better just shoot yourself and save us the disgust."
The problem is that a girl that goes through that in her daily life can't be a thief nor a warrior, for example, given the effect heels and pads have on the feet of girls that wear them too much can have them needing painkillers to walk at thirty, and WILL have them needing painkillers to walk later on. So while your sorceress or priestess, as no physical character can go through that, will have some hot legs your party will need to keep the painkillers flowing, stopping when she needs to rest for days because her legs reject to work any longer, etc. Those are the "physical consequences" I was talking about, not being ugly.
Then, the best proportions for legs is around 5-3-2 (though some say 4 1/2-3-2 instead), and even those, which most girls will not have naturally, will look awful if the girl's legs aren't long enough. To get those proportions, as they do too to get most other correct proportions, girls who are into beauty and fashion must not only go through training and dieting hell but go through particular types of training that are focused on beauty and image instead of health or fitness, and design series of exercises accordingly. This means your sorceress or priestess needs to spend a great deal of the game training in ways that are painful and unbalanced, feeling like shit because their bad diet, and vomiting behind a tree because their stomach is rejecting the heavy and solid food of an adventurer. Those are "physical consequences", too. Not to mention the stress of having the physical activity of their life as an adventurer getting in the way of their carefully built exercising plans, and thus needing weekly visits to her image trainer to correct and adapt the training plan.
Even with that most girls' legs will not reach 5-3-2 (nor 4 1/2-3-2) naturally. What's left? Of course, atrophiating their leg muscles (and other muscles, too, to keep their respective proportions) wholly or partially (only some muscles) by physical or chemical means is one of the preferred methods by the modeling and entertainment industry.
Not to mention the kind of shit girls had to go through, and many still go through (only of their own free will now), for things like hand and feet size, neck shape, waist to hip ratio, etc. And that's just one part of the body, mentioned very superficially. Add all of them for physical consequences, and the personality disorders of their lifestyle to boot. And the time requirements, makeup transformed into an art, the way the "correct" way to walk and sit and stand fucks you royally, etc.
So as long as there isn't a "courtesan", "idol", "socialite", "debutante", or similar class whose entire function is to be beautiful, charming, charismatic, fashionable, and endearing be prepared for all female characters in games looking pedestrian, ugly, butch, brutish, and, at best, "girl next door" with a tendency towards "I wouldn't touch that with a teen foot long pole."
