		+
		+	==Description==
		+	Charisma factors into gameplay much less often than other attributes, but still has several effects:
		+
		+	* Charisma influences [[foocubus]] encounters, both by increasing the chance of a positive result and by giving more control over whether they remove the hero's armor.{{refsrc\|src/mhitu.c\|2431\|nethack=3.6.7}}
		+	* Charisma also affects the prices offered by [[shopkeeper]]s for buying wares and selling items in their [[shop]]{{refsrc\|src/shk.c\|2884\|nethack=3.6.7}}—this is detailed in [[#List of price adjustments\|the table below]].
		+	* Charisma increases the chances of a [[hero]] successfully [[Bribe#Bribing in Gehennom\|bribing demons]] with less money than they demand.{{refsrc\|src/minion.c\|304\|nethack=3.6.7}}
		+	* Charisma partly determines the amount of gold required to [[Bribe#Bribing the Yendorian Army\|bribe the Yendorian army]].{{refsrc\|src/dokick.c\|372\|nethack=3.6.7}}
		+	* The chance of successfully applying a [[saddle]] to a monster.{{refsrc\|src/steed.c\|94\|nethack=3.6.7}}
		+	* The initial [[apport]] of new pets is equal to your charisma.{{refsrc\|src/dog.c\|45\|nethack=3.6.7}}
		+
		+	Charisma also influences several [[YAFM\|funny messages]] that otherwise have no effect on gameplay or mechanics:
		+
		+	* The message given when a monster [[dig]]s through a [[door]] outside of the hero's sight, while they are [[hallucinating]].{{refsrc\|src/dig.c\|1362\|nethack=3.6.7}}
		+	* The message given for a hero applying a [[mirror]] at themselves.{{refsrc\|src/apply.c\|826\|nethack=3.6.7}}
		+	* The message for a hero curing delayed [[stoning]] by eating the [[corpse]] or [[tin]] of a [[lizard]] or [[acidic]] monster, casting the [[stone to flesh]] spell at themselves, or else quaffing a [[potion of acid]], while also hallucinating.{{refsrc\|src/eat.c\|751\|nethack=3.6.7}}
		+
		+	A hero cannot [[exercise]] or abuse charisma, but can raise or lower it through a few methods. Charisma can be raised by the following:
		+
		+	* A [[worn]] [[ring of adornment]] increases charisma by an amount equal to its [[enchantment]].
		+	* Quaffing a [[potion of gain ability]] can increase charisma by 1, and quaffing a blessed potion increases it and all other attributes by one.
		+	* Quaffing from a magic [[fountain]] can raise one or all attributes by 1 as with the potion of gain ability, depending on the hero's [[luck]].
		+	* The [[taming]] effect of a [[magic trap]] also raises the hero's charisma by 1.
		+
		+	Charisma can be decreased by the following:
		+
		+	* The attribute-decreasing effect of quaffing a non-blessed [[potion of sickness]].
		+	* The attribute-decreasing effect from [[sitting]] on a [[throne]].
		+	* The effect of a worn ring of adornment with a negative enchantment.
		+
		+	{{upcoming\|NetHack 3.7.0\|Charisma affects the probability that monsters are affected by [[conflict]].}}

−	Charisma is a difficult stat to increase, as it cannot be exercised. You can gain charisma by triggering a [[magic trap]], so some players deliberately trigger magic traps until they explode, a strategy known as the "magic trap boogie". However, this can be dangerous - many monsters will be summoned, and the towers of flame will reduce your maximum HP unless you have [[fire resistance]].
