	Yes. However these (currently) arent very great skills (yet).
	I have been meaning to get back to tuning these to be more
	usefull. Respectively, singing and oratory: pacify (once)
	hostile creatures and make nuetral/friendly creatures your
	followers who will fight for you. You gain xp in the Cha-based
	"personality" exp category by having your followers kill
	stuff. 

	With a low value of Cha, you will almost never succeed in 
	gaining followers/pacifying baddies (in fact, low Cha
	players are more likely to make nuetral characters hostile
	by using "oratory").

	Cha is also used by the spell code some too btw.
