But having to resort to self-mutilation to use a random magic item is just... why? The fridge logic kicks in here a bit, there really isn't any good reason for the helmet to not fit Big Ears even though it fit all the other goblins' non-standard head shapes. Its magic, its literally supposed to Just Work, by design.
Not every magic item is able to re-size itself to fit the user. That helmet was still large enough to fit a human head, but Big-ears effectively had two stuffed socks hanging out the side of his head.

And a single zombie doesn't assert a whole lot of power around it does it? One zombie won't get a town of people running. People who don't know what it is may try to approach it and see what's wrong with the person. People who do know what it is may give it a quick stab to the head and end it right then and there. Zombies are only ever a threat that changes someone's mental state on them when they're in huge groups.

Liches get increased charisma despite being reduced to skeletons because of increased mental abilities that make them better leaders/casters/speakers.
it's more of "they loose charisma for being pretty humans, but gain charisma for being fearful magic undead with world-ending powers" really.


He didn't always have that rope there, and Kin knew right away he was bad news. Kore sucks at first impressions.
He had the rope in his throat when Kin first met him. He can actually be quite verbose when he wants to be. That's not even mentioning that in that same event, he had an entire tavern orf orcs, ogres, and monsters quaking in their boots out of fear. Having a high charisma doesn't mean you like to talk. And sometimes, it's the silent killers that you really fear.


Except we've seen zero of that. Nobody has ever done anything for Kore.
We've seen zero evidence of him having a low charisma score too.

When Korgath and Minmax were fighting filthy goblins to the death, Kore arriving made them all unite against the lowest charisma opponent and coordinated themselves with precision to deny him any victory.
We've never seen them "unite against the lowest charisma opponent", you're treating this like the world is on a giant witch-hunt for low charisma people. they united against the biggest THREAT. not the lowest CHARISMA. these are two entirely different things!

Kore's all alone.
You can have a high charisma and still work alone. High charisma =/= a swarm of followers. Any super-hero story could tell you that. Plus he's on a quest to "Destroy all evil", and from his perspective, even being in the presence of evil can cause a "seed of evil" to take root. Even if someone wanted to join him, he'd refuse. He even outright states himself that He works alone, it has nothing to do with people not wanting to work against him because of his "low charisma"

That's how low Kore's charisma is, even mortal enemies will unite on the spot against him.
Again, you team up with your mortal enemy to fight a bigger threat, not a lower charisma. Unless you're saying that this Pandaren Monk has an incredibly low charisma? Or this Infernal demon?
