What makes Charm unique?  Anyone can learn the rules in minutes.  You can play any genre at any power level.  There is no compromise in action, Charm replicates all aspects of all simulation RPG with a very simple rule set.  This is achieved through driving character ability through the archetype that you define.  In additional you also choose character aspects that allow your character to perform dynamic action.  As characters level, the total amount of aspects increases as does the number of times each can be used.

This is all accomplished using the same play style have have been familiar with for years.  Its driven by your creativity.  The aspects directly relate to your character.  A warrior with a Strength aspect is physically strong and therefore can perform special feat related to strength.  He can toss his enemies, lift heavy objects off his allies and cleave through the thickest armor.  A clever chef, can find ways to foil his rival’s best dishes, make the perfect dinner for his lover or create something entirely new.  At mean girl high school, the class president who has willpower can stay up all night to study, endure the cruelest humiliation and rally her class to win the competition.  The only limitations is what you and your GM decide.  Determine where mundane action and dynamic action meet.  Once that’s done you are ready to play and have a blast.
