Genealogy of the Holy War

Charm (Japanese: カリスマ Charisma) is a combat skill which debuted in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War. In all of its appearances before Fates, it boosts the accuracy and evasive capabilities of all allied units who are near the skill's user; from Fates onward, it instead boosts damage dealt by nearby allies.

Trivia

  • Path of Radiance has unused elements which suggest that Charm was planned to reappear in it but was abandoned during development. Curiously, in every localization of the game except Italian, the skill was given the same localized names that the respective languages used eight years later in the localizations of Awakening.
