Intimidation is a charisma skill. A hulking half-orc barbarian with violent tendencies is less intimidating than the party bard.

As a piper, obviously, the bard could threaten to play the bagpipes out of tune so I can see where WotC were going with making it a Cha skill, but still.

The way I RP it in my head is the bard is telling the NPC, "I'll have my buddy here fuck you up"
