The real, true hero of the show
He has multiple girls into him despite being awkward at time, he has high Cha.
Or maybe he’s just hot.
Thus giving him high Cha
Charisma is force of personality. Being hot is just a circumstance modifier to some checks.
In Pathfinder 1e, it mentions that high charisma can mean an attractive person. We know this can be true because my bard had a 36 cha (PF1e is broken lmao) and we all know it wasn’t his personality.
Yeah, but it affects ALL charisma rolls, so it’s effectively just a permanent CHA boost applied directly to the character. No functional difference from naturally high CHA, IMO.Wait.
It doesn’t work if target doesn’t have LOS, so loophole found, we just have to invent the internet or telephone in-universe to nullify sokka’s advantage.
Edit: or drop a permanent orb of darkness over him so nobody can see what he looks like
If you should have learned one thing from feminism, it’s that charisma and physical attractiveness are not the same thing.
Pretty sure that’s not the one thing you should take away from feminism. Pretty sure it’s something about equality.
If you learned one thing from D&D, they are.
I get that this is a bit, but even in D&D charisma and attractiveness are different. Unless the elder brain is supposed to be sexy, then I need to rethink some things.
… You DON’T think widdle EB is HOT?
Or maybe he just met a lot of people.
And he throws metal the hard way.
Trying to defend being a massive Sokka simp, I see?
Yeah, he was a condescending sexist prick to the Kiyoshi warriors (initially), and while it did earn him some beatings, it didn’t get him a restraining order and he even got with Suki in the end. That’s high CHA alright.
Meet enough people and there will be at least one who is into jerks.
Right? His main squeeze met him by kicking his ass over sexist comments. Classic Bard shit.
I don’t know about you, but to me, the fact that he showed genuine humility and willingness to step beyond his initial chauvinism (after some hands-on lessons about fighting women) had a lot more to do with that than his charm.
Depending on the person, being awkward can be charming and sweet.
His CHA was high enough that he kept rolling low and saying silly things and it still was good enough.
On the contrary, if you keep trying then eventually you’ll roll a 20 no matter how low your CHA is. That’s good enough in circumstances where you do get to keep trying and you only need to succeed once. Sokka would keep trying while Zuko would refuse to risk looking like a fool.
Like when the character is more charismatic than the player. “I don’t know what to say in this situation, but I rolled well!”
Let my socially awkward peeps play a bard if they want to, damn
That’s rough buddy.
