Charm, you say? Oh, you wouldn't want to learn anything about that terrible curse of the charismatic.

From:

And what exactly do you want to know?

From:

A curse? What sort of curse?

From:

Anything. The mechanics of it, the way its used, its purpose, more information on its seemingly hypnotic powers... Whatever you know!

From:

Oh it's simply dreadful. People have died from it, you know.

From:

Died you say? How so? Sudden onset of bad luck? Trampled by the hypnotized masses?

From:

Hmm. Well, people who are charming always know just the right thing to say at the right time. To put people at ease, to get them to like you and, in a lot of cases, get them to follow you.

Charm isn't something you just learn.

From:

Sounds like him, but... What about sparkling?

From:

...what about sparkling?

From:

What do you mean?

From:

Goodness no, those would have been far better fates.

Charm, charisma, these things just come naturally to some.

From:

Then what happened? You can't just say something like that and not explain.

From:

What does that have to do with charm?

From:

Hm... So it's genetic?

From:

It...doesn't? I mean, not usually. Where'd you hear this?

From:

No, I couldn't explain, the details are just too gruesome to repeat.

From:

...So?

From:

There's this Sophomore Leader who has all of those qualities. He sparkles. Constantly. Is it a side-effect or what?

From:

Do you really want to hear them? Are you certain? [last word is half-whispered and very menacing]

From:

How many times do I have to say "yes" before you tell me?!

From:

The curse is so terrible it threw a mighty king to his grave. And by his own brother's hand, no less.

From:

That's it?
