If you dont plan to find, create or invest in Cha gear as well. I dont think those creation Cha points will do Jack shit.

The right answer for most people is creation points in to Wisdom. MOST people.
I'd put a premium on cha even in vanilla. There are just too few very high cha items and decent cha that have good stats otherwise. You basically have tranix crown(hard to get), crude stein, gypsy medallion, opaline earrings, star ruby veil. This is going to leave you far short of 200 if your race is going to start with 75 cha. And the cha affect on lull is very high pre-200. Veil is kinda questionable since it has no stats but 9 cha. Might also mention the fact you will be doing CR... And when you are naked you obviously wont have the benefit of any gear, and the cleric who didn't max cha at character creation is going to be much more likely to get a crit lull fail in these situations.

Edit: actually empirically estimated chances
75 cha would be like 41% crit lull chance
100 would be 34%
