Charisma is an Ability Score and the primary ability of Bard, Warlock, Sorcerer.

Charisma affects its related skills (Deception, Intimidation, Performance, Persuasion) and improves spellcasting for Bards, Paladins, Warlocks and Sorcerers (chance to hit with spell attack, spell's Difficulty Class).

As of Early Access Patch 9, increasing one's Charisma Modifier also improves the prices offered by Traders (by increasing the Persuasion skill bonus).
