Please give charisma some more uses. I doubt this is a new suggestion. This would add value to a lot of existing food recipes, some of which are very charisma heavy. Right now charisma makes some foods prohibitive to eat because gaining a point in charisma can be considered a total loss in invested FEPs.
Vague suggestions:
Influence actions dealing with farm animals and taming.
A chance to de-aggro undamaged animals when you hit the peace button that increases with charisma.
Add charisma weighted combat moves.
A small LP boost from charisma so Int + Cha are now both learning stats to make up for the lack of tradition slider?
Group buffs from playing instruments based on charisma.
Please consider. Thanks.
