Charm is a secondary skill in Heroes of Might and Magic IV. If the hero has a stronger army, the skill converts enemy army's creatures (neutral or belonging to a different faction) to the hero's ranks. Should the hero refuse, the creatures are not removed from the enemy army. It also reduces the cost of surrender.
Charm is related to the secondary skill Order Magic.
