Technically this is a dead baby RAW
why is it dead?
iirc in D&D if any of your stats reach 0 you die. Might be only body stats (str/dex/con), not sure.
I think I remember Wis doesn't kill you at 0, but you go fully insane and lose control of your character. But that might just be older versions and not 5th ed rules. I feel like I recall something about going into a coma if Int hits zero, maybe that is new rules for mental stats...?
Youre correct, at least in 3e only 0 con kills you outright. All the others just make you comatose or some other state in which you lose control of your character.
But in 5e all 0 attribute states mean you die.
So 0 charisma means you die of ugliness? You’re so disgusted by yourself you just stop breathing? Or the gods find you so unappealing they reach down and snuff you out?
Iirc you lose all sense of yourself and experience total ego death, then real death follows. Charisma is more than just how hot you are.
That makes sense, we’ve all had days like that
This. While "seduction" is not technically a skill, that could fit under Persuasion or Deception, depending on how you go about it, and this still leaves Performance and Intimidation, soooooo....
