Charisma is hard to quantify, but it is generally understood as your
confidence or social weight. Charismatic characters appear more
attractive and trustworthy than those with lower charisma. They can
more easily navigate social situations. Charisma helps with:

- avoiding fights with aggressive monsters
- thief steal skills and shadow exposure limit
- warrior intimidate and morale skills
- druid animal handling skills
- necromancer and druid minion and control spells
- soulstealing powerful monsters
- shopkeeper prices

In addition, charisma is required to use most cleric spells and skills.
Clerical powers are granted by the gods, and powerful priests must have
the charisma both to appease the gods and convert the followers that a
god's power depends on.

Charisma can be magically augmented, via the 'presence' cleric spell,
and debuffed with the 'noxious cloud' cleric curse, the 'reeking odor'
druid salve, and the 'itching skin' thief poison.

You can raise your charisma permanently with the 'train' command.
