Ah, the door of Skye-R'ym!

Ah, that makes sense. It sounded like you were saying that 5e was the first to use Charisma for Intimidation, but bards being more intimidating than barbarians is a long standing (if questionable) DnD tradition.

Changes? 3e, 4e, and 5e all used it like that

It's canon for elves, not so much for everybody else (unless you mean the spell). Though that sounds like some Mercy Killer thinking right there

You'd think that, but you'd be wrong. Birds can make a lot of sounds that should be impossible, for example this raven likes to say boop

I use the rules as is, but I'd love it if there was something less complicated (so adding a clause for spell level is not an option to me). If DnD 5.5 would go for "one spell slot per turn", I'd welcome it, even if it's a slight nerf for casters.
