Intelligence is knowing tomatoes are a fruit Wisdom is knowing never to add it to a fruit salad

10 is average for an adventuring hero. Not necessarily for most "civilians" if you want to call them that.

"Charisma is a sex appeal" is funny, but that's not really entirely accurate. It's about motivating others towards your goals whatever that may be, having a presence that commands attention and being a good communicator. That's why charisma helps disparate skills like lying, persuading, intimidating, and performing. Sex appeal may superficially help some of those things, but so does a half-giant that makes you piss yourself with their mere presence, or an old fat guy who speaks with clarity of conviction and intelligence. Ain't nobody want to fuck Winston Churchill, and he was an asshole as well. But he was a very charismatic figure, still.

Ain't nobody want to fuck Winston Churchill, and he was an asshole as well. But he was a very charismatic figure, still.One of the things I liked about the Chronicles of Darkness system is it cleared this up nicely. Stats were in a 3x3 grid. One axis was physical, mental, social The other was Power, Finesse, Resistance. Want to shove something? Physical + Power. That's strength. Want to figure out a riddle? Mental + Finesse. That's Dexterity. Command attention? Social + Power. That's the Presence stat. Lie and misdirect? Social + Finesse. Stat was called Manipulation. Now you can have a character that's commanding without also being a natural liar and flirt. DND doesn't help let you do that because the concepts are bundled together into a single stat. (You could invest separately into like Expression for making speeches and Deception for lying, of course) Humans are rated 1 to 5, where a 5 is the peak of human capability. Presence 5 is like AAA movie stars and great leaders. Of course, if you add supernaturals to your game a starting chump vampire could have **seven** presence if they take Majesty as their power, and become a nearly irresistible magnet of attention.

Charisma is essentially Social Skills. Social Skills definitely help you get laid, but also convince a shopkeeper to give you a discount, persuade a guard to look the other way, etc.
