Heh, I was not expecting such detail 'o'. I was thinking something along the lines of, "Why would a celestial tap that dwarven arse?". I had Korgan beat himself to godlike beauty with the "Ugly Rod", I was expecting maybe. . .flowers growing beneath his feet? I suppose it is sometimes better NOT knowing all of the D&D rules ;^). . .

Well, since your character can't gain "henchmen" in BGII, the effects of a high Charisma are relegated to how merchants and others react towards your character. It also affects a spellcasters' ability to "Charm" opponents (high Charisma increases the chances of success).
Still, as good as BGII is, it will never fully represent the PnP version of AD&D - because the game (by necessity) limits the choices of actions your character can take. In PnP, your characters actions are literally limited only by your imagination. Our most memorable games were always the ones where somebody did something completely "off the wall" with their character (like my ranger PC once jumping on the back of a giant spider, so I could attack it without it being able to reach me).
