===== Charm =====

Charm is a [[meta:concepts:statistics|stat]] which serves exactly one purpose: it makes chances go your way, in anything from wooing to fighting. [[meta:concepts:rumor|Rumour]] has it [[places:outpost:building:sheilasshack|Sheila]] is especially vulnerable to it.((In plaintext, you will receive a discount on your purchases from Sheila that grows with your Charm, up to a certain cap as seen in the spreadsheet in a following footnote.))
Here are our favourite ways to gain it:

  * Hanging around in [[places:outpost:building:psk|The Prancing Spiderkitty]].
  * [[gameplay:concepts:improbableevent|Improbable events]] which involve an Old Man and his stick, Jokers with spiked drinks and/or large stones that leave you dazed and confused.
  * Having sex with [[gameplay:classes:squats|Squats]]. ((would we lie?))  
  * Titanic amounts of bullshit.
  * Throwing Improbability Bombs. ((though it is improbable))
  * Having the guts to take on the Drive.

Nearly all ways to gain charm involve some cost in the form of [[items:req|req]], [[items:cig|cigs]] or life.

There are also numerous ways to lose charm, the most glamorous way involves the Skronky Pot.

If you were always curious exactly how much discount you get from a charm point, or what your current charm is, this is your lucky day.
