Charisma is a skill in The Sims, The Sims 2 and The Sims 3. In games prior to The Sims 3, it is a skill that has relatively little practical value outside of career advancement. In The Sims 2 and The Sims 3 it also increases the chance of positive results due to social interactions, such as joke telling and reduces the chance of being rejected. In The Sims 2: University expansion pack, Teens with high levels of Charisma are eligible for a special college scholarship.
Charisma points are primarily gained by talking to oneself in the mirror. In The Sims 3, Charisma can also be gained by talking and interacting with other Sims, as well as reading Charisma skill books.
In The Sims 3, certain interactions and rewards increase starting relationships, such as a Celebrity using a Charming Introduction will instantly have a new friend. Charisma skill-building requires friends and relationships to progress. Charismatic Sims learn the skill faster.
