Title says it all, I need a +1 template that gives me a bonus to my Charisma score.

Aasimar gives +2 Charisma and +2 Wisdom and makes you a Native Outsider

There is also the Lesser Aasimar which is +0 LA, but makes you a HUmanoid instead of Outsider

EDIT: GAH nevermind, i hadn't seen the template part, nooby me :smallyuk:

Draconic, +2 cha and more for 1 LA.

Half-fey is a pretty good deal but it's 2 LA.

EDIT:

And you'd have to search that whole thing just to find draconic.

Unseelie Fae will do it for +0.

Primordial fits the bill exactly if your race is allowed to be Half-Giant :smallbiggrin:

The only one I've been able to find myself that can apply to nearly every race you might be playing is Draconic.

Magic-Blooded and Unseelie Fey are both LA+0 templates that add +2 Cha.

Currently using all three templates on a Drow for a nigh-unbeatable build (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?p=12882307).

Already been swordsage'd to it but the Primordial Giant on a Half-Giant gives you +4 INT/CHA at a +1LA. You also get an at-will SLA if I remember rightly, which can be invisibility, levitation or purge if memory serves. But it comes at a cost of -2 Str and Dex.

Fire-souled (Dr 314) gives +4 and leadership and a few abilities.

+6 actually. It is also LA+3.

My apologies, I saw the CR adjustment. But it is definitely a +4.

Cool story, bro. Unfortunately I couldn't find a list of templates that had both LA(which your list is lacking) and racial modifiers.

I'm making a Dragonborn Gnome Bard/Marshal and get a -1 LA so I was looking for a free template to get my Charisma up but Dragonborn doesn't play well with Draconic so I guess I'll go with my Dragonborn Chaos Gnome backup plan, I guess.

There's the feytouched template, I believe from the Fiend Folio.


Failing that, you can probably grab one of WotC's Savage Progressions and only take the first level.

+1 for Magic-Blooded. it's a reasonably balanced +0 template (unless you're playing a human sorcerer, then it's a no-brainer all-positive thing. But every template is better for some classes than others).

Unseelie Fey, however, is a mess.

What's Magic-Blooded from, exactly? I'm working conceptually on a Charisma-pimped Bardadin (I think Talya had a thread with the same idea that popped up on a Google search, actually) and could always use the stat boost.

I could go Half-Nymph and count on LA buyoff, but Half-Nymph is cheating.

Shoulda known. Well, this is more of an optimization exercise anyway, it doesn't have to be from a source I actually like to bring into games. I already made a non-optimized version of it just because I had the stupidly good die rolls needed to make it playable at low levels.

It has level adjustment listed. It's called "Lvl +X" instead of "LA +X". And by racial modifiers do you mean what type/subtype it requires or potentially changes you to? If so, it does that, too.

Oh hey Dragonfire Inspiration requires dragonblood subtype, why am I looking at anything but Draconic for a Bardadin...I guess sticking one of the other templates on top of that or Silverbrow Human would work too...

not a template but the race Spellscale gives you +2 cha

Or a Hellbred (spirit aspect) for -2 Con, +2 Cha

gains good abilities as it increases in HD, including the ability to see in magical darkness as well as telepathy, which is good for Mindsight

Also, if you're not set on Gnome, Star Elf gives -2 Con, +2 Cha, IIRC. (Or maybe that was Sun Elf.)

Star Elf gives Cha, with no LA. Sun Elf gives Int.

There's the feytouched template, I believe from the Fiend Folio.Feytouched is from Fiend Folio, but it isn't a template. It's a race, in the same fashion that Aasimar and Tiefling are races. The immunity to mind-affecting effects is a nice feature for an LA+1 race, though.
