[QUOTE="nopantsyet, post: 98934, member: 3109"] I would consider that low a CHA to be a similar condition to autism. (In agreement with the previous mention of Rain Man.) An autistic is not necessarily unintelligent--there are even autistic savant types. But autistics simply cannot communicate in ways that are understandable to anybody who has not spent alot of time with them, such as a mentor or close relative. For someone in that condition to live any sort of functional life because they would not have the social skills to enable them to learn complex things like a class. So I don't think that kind of character could have class levels or be an adventurer at all. But allowing it, I would have him only be able to communicate with the relative in the party and still only to a limited degree. I don't think a character with low CHA goes unnoticed. I think they are likely to be the object of ridicule. Who's the kid who gets teased in school? The one who doesn't have the social skils to keep up with everyone else. My 2cp. [/QUOTE]
