Need help in answering an anti-spambot question in Spanish!

I'm trying to register to a forum of a dungeon and dragons fantasy game I'm playing, and I'm forced to answer a question. They ask:

El "carisma" es una característica de los PJs ¿Podrías decir otra?:
Esta pregunta es una forma de evitar inserciones automatizadas por spambots.

Now I know that PJ means "persona juego"... or "player's character", if you will.

If I try to translate it I get. "Charisma is a PC's trait. Can you say it again?"

What can possibly be the answer?

¡Qué cosa más extraña! Media vida llevo metido en Internet y nunca me he topado con tal suceso. A mí me han preguntado de todo en inglés; pero *casi* nunca en español. El típico reCaptcha, creado por un guatemalteco, se dedica prácticamente en un 99% al escaneo de libros escritos en inglés, aprovechando pues que son accesibles desde cualquier teclado (amén de que dicho idioma se convirtió ya hace bastante en lengua franca).

Un saludo cordial.
