Rename Charisma into Teamplay

[theTrav]

I reckon we should rename it to "TheTrav Stat"

[AlexFili]

Well, if it's only going to be used for party-related things, I think Leadership is better.

[KoE]

Therein lies the problem: nowhere has it been stated that charisma would only affect party related things, forever and for always, amen. Calling it teamplay would shaft the stat into a single use or cause more confusion when Teamplay somehow lets you handle animals better. Charisma is generic enough to cover a variety of things, and leaves things like a Leadership skill for more focused stuff at a later date.

As a matter of fact, thinking about it, who's to say there won't be something like Exploration or Stealth to which charisma is tied for these party attacks we've heard of?

[AlexFili]

Does that mean we might have NPCs at one point?

In some other games I've played, sheep were associated with intelligence, despite all sense.

Just run with it.

Anyway, charisma is a classic stat, so why change it if it's not horribly wrong? We don't even know all of what charisma will matter for, anyway.

classic stat.

[Raephire]

Cooperation would be better - far more appropriate than either. And to stomach half the foods you'd need to eat to raise it, I'd say your stomach has to learn to cooperate with your mouth.

Cooperation would be better

But what if they use it to power charm spells?

What if it's triggering abilities that involve leadership in an order giving sense (which is not strictly speaking cooperation)

I would expect a cooperation skill to make my character to be better at taking orders, rather than giving them.

Also, I still think it should be either "TheTravStat" or "Chicks dig-it"

Also, I still think it should be either "TheTravStat" or "Chicks dig-it"

But what if the person IS a chick and doesn't swing that way? (We are ignoring the obvious truths of the internets here, just bear with me.)

[theTrav]

All chicks dig charisma, even lesbians. digging isn't necessarily sexual
