More Charismatic

Palpatine is way more charming in his ways, at least in the Prequels. The way he reassures people and tries to be friendly with them is deliciously evil.

Touche. Is there a literary difference between "charisma" and "charming"?

Palpatine and Dooku are both extremely charismatic, though Palpatine's is more subtle. I mean, this is the guy who persuaded the Senate to give him everything he ever wanted - so he has to have a hell of a lot of charisma.

Dooku's is just more obvious. The tall, regal figure with the deep booming voice, speaks of obvious intelligence and superiority.

But, I'd sooner trust Palpatine than Dooku. Tall old men with deep voices scare me. 😛

Palpatine used his charm and charisma to make Dooku do what he wanted so...
