Charisma Penalty as a Bonus to Intimidation?

Post by Kidemonas »

I had a player, whose character had an edge that let him use his charisma penalty as a bonus to intimidation checks. But I cannot find the edge.

Any of you know off hand what book it was in? (I used search so I know it was not Deluxe.)

I believe you're thinking of Reputation, which appears in both Deadlands: Reloaded and Solomon Kane.

Cool thanks.
I could not think which book he pulled it from. I will look at it.

Sounds like a good edge,

Given how many d-bees have charisma penalties (which go up with the CS) it might not make a good general edge but an iconic edge for mind melters might be very cool.
