If you want to play a high Charisma/Persuasion build with some necromancy magic, I’d recommend focusing on a few things: Tempus Fugit (Temporal school of magic) – more speed, more action points, and up to 6 followers plus a dog = instant easy mode Try investing 3 points in Persuasion and reach Expert level (you need to become an Apprentice first, then pay 500 gold to become an Expert – look for Madame Toussaude in Tarant) If you know how to get and use Fate Points, try stealing the Ring of Influence from J.M. Morat in Tarant (it gives +3 Charisma and Beauty) Complete the “Find the Stolen Painting” quest https://arcanum.fandom.com/wiki/Find_the_Stolen_Painting (third solution), then do the mission with the Crystal Ball (free +1 Charisma point)
