Charmspeak is a type of hypnotism or persuasion in which it allows the speaker to convince someone else to do or get whatever they want. The strength of the command depends on the tone and the emotion of the charmspeaker's voice, as well as their skill with it. Eventually, charmspeak wears off and the person has no recollection of why they did what they were commanded to do. For those children of Aphrodite blessed with this gift, they may not realize that they are using this ability, usually not trying to put any power into their words, though they can still charmspeak other people. This happened often with Piper McLean, who didn't realize at first what she was doing. She would ask for things and people would give it to her, which lead to her father, Tristan McLean, defining her as a klept

She would ask for things and people would give it to her, which lead to her father, Tristan McLean, defining her as a kleptomaniac, as she just kept stealing bigger things, like a car. In The House of Hades, Piper wakes up Festus, who was shut down for upgrading, using charmspeak. The only known demigods, as of now, to possess this power are Piper and Drew Tanaka. Any other demigods with this particular gift are yet to be introduced into the series. Circe has charmspeak powers and taught it to her niece, Medea (as stated in The Lost Hero). Circe herself had seemingly used charmspeak in The Sea of Monsters, charmspeaking Percy. A charmspeaker can reverse other people being charmspoken if they are skilled enough.
