I liked Peter, I don't know why everyone hated him. He did what every normal human would do. I mean they tortured him then healed him over and over again. Who could resist that. And secondly, they've only met a little while ago.
Maybe it's not just his Charm stat that is able to be deactivated. Perhaps he can deactivate all of his stats...
That would allow him to appear as weak as his watch says he is...
