I see. Is it possible to get my character to 17 cha without using cheats?
You can just go to the Gnoll Stronghold and take the Tome of Leadership and Influence(+1 permanent Charisma) and use it on your character. Then save the game and exit. Next you just import your character from the saved game.
I don't consider that cheating. Maybe cheesing but not cheating.
Don't see that as cheat too, it's a hard work for your tome by some perspective, but then extend the adventure to get the body health tome (con+1) in the pirate cave and one of the book of understanding (wis+1) in the 3° durlag's tower upper level could be interesting.

Duping items is cheating but its a single player game so who cares?
What's humorous about this is that arguably if he re-started the game multiple times to amass additional copies of the tomes, most people would see it as dedicated powergaming rather than cheating. Theoretically by re-playing through BG over and over, you achieve 25 in all statistics - legally - without using an editor or duping items. More than likely you'd probably hit the XP cap by your 2nd playthrough if not earlier. You might even be able to speed run it on the 2nd trip.
IIRC, I think each playthrough with the same character can net you: +1 Str, Dex, Con, Int, Cha, and +3 Wisdom if you find every Tome in the game (including the Wisdom tome in the expansion content).
At 8 charisma that is a lot of additional runs through that part of the game. Since you are probably most likely to only bother picking up the constitution book, one of the wisdom books (Durlags tower), and the charisma book you could still benefit in some regards from it.
