Yes, but that also assumes an AVERAGE demon.

Curtis, with a Will of 9 (not outrageous) is an Impudite of Belial. If he touches an angel while lighting a cigarette, he's added +5 to his roll (+2 touching, +3 for Corp Forces)...making his chances 8 or less. Yes, they get a Will roll but angels tend to buy up Perception.

I always look at Charm in two ways: First, the Impudite is pushing HIS relationship to the front of the line in the person's mind.

The second is that the Impudites have a trick of pushing the part of the brain which causes a dopamine to be released, hence the 'good feeling' at seeing an Impudite when charmed (if you need a pseudo scientific analogy. But that part of the brain is a darned slippery target...)

It's such a good feeling, a very good feeling,
