I think another big factor of charisma is your voice and smooth talking people into doing things for you. I know one guy who is not the brightest, or best looking but he can talk his way into almost any job he wants in the interview. People just like what they hear, personally I think he exaggerates his ability but it is definitely a boost to his charisma of why people are drawn to him. He could probably sell you an empty bag.

P.S. Zuvio I've been told by many members of the opposite gender that I'm rather good looking.

Putting on a fancy 3-piece-suit can make you look good. All my ex-girlfriends look good. My current girlfriend is a good looking blonde. You could say that I look good. But I would not go as far as saying that I'm worth a CHA of 16, just because I look ...... good!

If being physically attractive is the main factor for deciding CHA, then only supermodels would have a CHA of 16 or higher. Why only supermodels? Because they are universally judged as good looking/attractive. You could find the girl next door good looking, but the rest of the block might just as well disagree with you.

P.S. I'm not arguing the fact that you look good or not! For all I know you *are* a CHA-16-Guy!! [img]graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

I would join in this thread, but I'm not in an honest mood, and its not worth doing unless I'm going to be honest.

So there

Well this post sounds like fun. Here are my real life stats:

STR:10-I'm not terribly strong, but I'm not average.

DEX:12- My dexterity tends to be random. Sometimes I can catch something faster than you can see, but other times...well I'm just comic relief. On the whole I am quite nimble for a person of my shape.

CON:9-Not quite sure, but I tend to get sick frequently. However, I am hard to endure and can work through some pretty tough illnesses.

INT:14- I'm very smart, but I'm not about to start enjoying Calculus. I prefer realistic things like Geometry.

WIS:17- I'm very principled and have a lot of good advice. Or at least most people I know tell me so. I've helped more than a couple people through some tough times.

CHA:13- I'm generally good-looking and have a great number of friends and very few enemies (that I know of), but I'm not always looking in the mirror and saying "Hey good-looking".


So that's me in the most honest way I can put it. I'd definately be some sort of priest by the looks of it.
Speaking of which, here's a good site for all of you who'd like to know what kind of D&D character you'd be:

Good thread.Gives an interesting look into the lives of the people behind those masking screen names.

Hmm, I would have to say my stats are very similar to Zuvio's.

if not, here:

Str. 10 (average)
Dex. 13-14 (much training, that's all)
Con. 8-10 (I get sick a lot, but have a large threshold for pain)
Int. 12-14 (not much to say for this, really. no explanation )
Wis. 12-14 (dunno, just innate)
Cha. 67954328 (I am the Adonis!) alright, prolly 12.

BTW, i took that quiz thing from Twin Rose, and they listed, Lawful Good Monk Druid. I think this pretty close, and I'm also playing a lawful good monk right now. coincedence, i think not. mere reflection of self.

well later, my super-model bretheren! [img]tongue.gif[/img]
