[QUOTE="Yair, post: 2749216, member: 10913"] How would you treat a hero with low Charisma? I've seen poeple claim that low-Cha characters are hated by NPCs in their games. I don't see how that can work. In my games, the party usually does some heroic things and as they grow in power become rich and famous for doing good and daring deeds. It usually has someone with high Cha in it, and someone(s) with low Cha. So what you end up with is a company of heroes, but some of which are low Cha. The way I treat it is like being some famous rock-and-roll band. Everyone knows that band's songs, name, and the lead singer's name. No one knows who the guy sitting at the back working the drums is. For the party, more and more people know of them and their exploits, but most will identify them with the "face" character or the martial characters (who are at the front), and while all members may be respected the charismatic ones will tend to be approached by both the nobility and commoners. No one will [u]hate[/u] the characters with low cha, though. I just don't see how that would work. [/QUOTE]
